In this powerful episode of Made for Christ, Jose shares his testimony—from a childhood marked by family dysfunction, his mother’s deportation and cancer diagnosis, and years spent in group homes, to a life of drugs, crime, and eventually prison.

In his youth, Jose chased money, status, and acceptance, only to find himself empty and broken. After crying out to God in desperation, he was arrested—an answered prayer that became the turning point of his life. In a jail cell, a fellow inmate challenged him with Scripture and introduced him to the “armor of God,” awakening deep conviction and leading Jose to fully surrender his life to Christ.

What followed was a radical transformation. In prison, Jose developed a genuine relationship with Jesus, experienced the power of the Holy Spirit, and began sharing the gospel with others. 

Jose’s message is simple and bold: true freedom begins with humility, repentance, and surrender to Christ. His story is a testament to God’s mercy, restoration, and the life-changing power of a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
