Bassett, who is known from Disney’s “High School Musical: The Series,” grew up in a Christian household, but mocked Christianity for years, having complete disdain for it. However, on a recent episode of the Zach Sang Show, Bassett revealed how him even talking about Jesus in a positive light today is a testament of who God is.
“I mocked God on this couch,” Bassett told Sang. “For me to be the person here talking about Jesus, I’m the last person I would expect.”
Bassett said that many people believe he was brainwashed from a service or lost his mind. However, Bassett recounts that after spending a lifetime of seeking truth, peace and spirituality, he now sees that what he was looking for is found only through Jesus.
While trying all kinds of odd spiritual and drug practices, Bassett had a moment where he actually saw the ugliness and hellishness inside of him.

“My soul was falling to the pits of hell, a hell I did not believe in,” Bassett said. “I was surrounded by hundreds of thousands of demons who were mocking me and laughing at me and torturing me.”
This experience was one that he knew was dramatically different because he was no longer just hallucinating, but rather, he knew that what he was seeing was real. He soon realized that there was much, much more to the spiritual world than he ever thought.
After this, Bassett spent the next six months trying to read the Bible while still keeping his feet in the world of addictions. One day, he thought that meditation would help him. However, instead, he experienced something profoundly different when the Holy Spirit took over.
“I sit up, and immediately I felt the Holy Spirit which I had never felt before,” Bassett said. “I just knew in that moment that I needed Jesus.”
“I got on my knees and I called my dad and I said, ‘can you help me accept Jesus?’” he continued.
Bassett revealed that his dad walked through the prayer of repentance with him. Bassett then found out that his dad had been praying for the Lord to open his eyes right when he called him.
“Every path I was going down, looking for peace, I found the moment I accepted Jesus…” said Bassett.
Continue to pray for this young as he steps into his faith that he would grow in Christ and that his life may be a testimony to others who are seeking true fulfillment that can only be found in Jesus.
