On a new episode of “The Deep End With Lecrae,” OnlyFans-star-turned-Christian Nala Ray opened up about how she became an adult content creator and how Jesus changed her life.

As ChurchLeaders has reported, Ray left a lucrative career in online porn after meeting her now-husband, a devout Christian. She was baptized in December 2023, deleted five years’ worth of explicit material, and now is “consuming Christian content” to grow closer to Jesus. Although some critics question Ray’s sincerity, she said Christ has “absolutely, radically saved” her.

During their recent discussion, Ray told Christian hip hop artist Lecrae why she was vulnerable to joining OnlyFans, how that lifestyle affected her, and how God redeemed her. Ray, 26, also revealed publicly for the first time that she was molested as a young teen.

Lecrae, who said he could relate to many parts of Ray’s story, said he’s “super encouraged” by the transformation God has orchestrated in her life.

Nala Ray’s Childhood Traumas Led to a ‘Void’

Nala Ray recapped traumatic experiences from her childhood and adolescence. While living in Missouri, her family lost “everything” when a tornado struck their house. Ray’s parents divorced, her dad moved to Mexico, and eventually her parents remarried each other.

Amid all that, there was “lots of arguing,” parental infidelity and depression, and several moves. Ray’s dad became a pastor, experienced “three consecutive church splits,” and is now “facing a prison sentence,” Ray shared.

Although she was raised in the church, Ray said it felt like faith was “being shoved down my throat.” Because she was homeschooled, she had no friends. And with no family support, she felt broken, with “such a void in my soul.”

Ray became rebellious and acted out. When she was 13, a teen boy who had moved into the family’s house molested her, “twisting” how she viewed sex. In her mind, sex became associated with power.

Ray, a fitness buff, started posting bikini photos on Instagram and sending nude pictures to a boyfriend. Eventually she received a message from a “random guy” telling her she’d “kill it” on OnlyFans, which she hadn’t heard about. Ray, whose current job wasn’t paying much, began posting relatively mild content to the site. Then she discovered that showing more skin led to more requests for content, which meant more money.
