Today we begin part one of a compelling two-part conversation with Santos Roman.

The beginning of Santos' journey is heartbreaking. When his mother chooses to separate him and his sister from their father to reunite with an old boyfriend in New York, Santos found himself grappling with emotional upheaval and loss. In search of solace, he turned to substances, setting him on a chilling trajectory through addiction and street life.

Listen to the unbelievable circumstances of his first connection with God—a feeling of restraint and guidance that prevented him from acting on a request that would have changed his life forever.

In this episode, Santos candidly shares his experiences as he races toward rock bottom. We dismantle the facade of street life, exploring the harsh realities of selling and using drugs, as well as the dangerous allure of alcohol and fighting. His story sheds light on a struggle that many face, but few discuss openly.

So, join us for this eye-opening and raw testimony as we uncover the complexities of Santos' and don’t miss the stunning revelation at the very end of the episode.
