Today, we are honored to be joined by Brother Anthony Barajas. Once known on the streets as “Big Stretch,” Anthony’s story is one of pain, redemption, and divine transformation. He opens up about growing up in a broken home, enduring deep loss, joining a gang, falling into heroin addiction, and spending a total of 15 years behind bars. Yet through it all, by the grace and mercy of God, Anthony’s life was completely transformed. Today, He is now an ordained minister and also  he travels to churches and communities, sharing his inspiring testimony from Violence to Grace.
