"A Genius Plan to Fix My Life.. Six Months in a Federal Penitentiary" Pastor Angel Ortiz | TESTIMONY TUESDAY
Summary
This episode of the Taking the Land podcast features Pastor Angel Ortiz, who shares his testimony of transformation from a life of crime and gang involvement to becoming a pastor. He joined gangs at a young age and was involved in criminal activities such as theft and drug dealing. However, his involvement in sports, particularly football and wrestling, gave him a sense of belonging and purpose. Despite his athletic success, Pastor Ortiz's criminal activities escalated, leading to dangerous encounters and betrayals. However, the influence of his brother's conversion to Christianity eventually led Pastor Ortiz to reconsider his lifestyle and seek a new path. Angel Ortiz shares his incredible journey from a life of fear, violence, and involvement with the Mexican cartel to finding salvation and forgiveness in Christ. He recounts the intense experiences of being targeted by enemies and the moment he encountered God's love through the witness of a pastor. Angel's life takes a dramatic turn as he decides to leave his old lifestyle behind and embrace a new life in Christ. Takeaways
