Jeff Joaquin shares his raw and emotional journey from a life of addiction, idolatry, and despair to a profound encounter with God's mercy. Raised in a devout Catholic family, Jeff's struggles began early, leading him down a path of alcoholism, drug abuse, and poor choices. A cocaine-induced heart attack at age 24 became the turning point, compelling him to call out to Jesus Christ in desperation.
Through the sacrament of general confession, Jeff experienced the life-changing power of God's forgiveness, transforming his brokenness into a message of hope for others. Now a devoted husband, father, and faith-filled speaker, Jeff uses his past to inspire men to leave sin behind, embrace vulnerability, and rediscover their purpose in Christ.
From near-death experiences to saving lives by sharing his testimony, Jeff's story is a testament to the power of redemption and the infinite mercy of God.
