Jorge Valdes was one of America’s notorious drug lords, and one of the country’s most powerful men. He had so much power and influence he literally thought he was a god. And one day, the most unlikely of men challenged him to live by a different sword–the Word of God. Hear how he went from drug lord to following the Lord of all.

Part 2

Would he be able to walk away from a drug cartel? Hear what the karate instructor’s bold challenge was and how he planted the Word of God in Jorge for three years. Jorge’s second incarceration was preceded by a coming clean moment with the judge and followed by a providential floating Bible verse in his jail cell, and eventually he finds real meaning in life through the Bible and the savior, Jesus.
