Starting Over // S09E09
We are all broken, whether we realize it or not. We are all rebellious, whether we realize it or not. And we all need Christ, whether we think we do or do not. When we realize our need for Him, for His leadership in our lives we can finally be made complete. He can and will take us from out lowest lows by His grace. Today, former gang leader turned ministry leader Tuan Nguyen shares how God has worked in His life and how God wants to do the same for others.
