At just nine years old, Isaiah’s father abandoned him and his mother kicked him out. Left to survive on the streets of El Paso, he was beaten, broken, and eventually joined the same violent gang that nearly killed him.

By his teens, Isaiah was known as “The Stabber”, feared for his violence and rage. He believed prison—or death—was his only future. But everything changed in solitary confinement when he encountered a chaplain who showed him God’s love.

This powerful testimony reveals how God took a hardened gang member and transformed him into a forgiven child of God, husband, father, and ministry leader. Today, Isaiah helps others trapped in cycles of addiction and violence discover hope in Jesus Christ.
