Wildly successful and at the peak of his career, multi-time world champion boxer Manny Pacquiao had everything the world could offer at his fingertips. All the while, Manny found his life outside the ring to be vastly incomplete—his marriage was in shambles, his family life was strained, and he was drifting deeper into a life of drinking, gambling, and self-destructive indulgence. Listen in as Manny shares about a dream, undeniably from the divine, that would ultimately and irrevocably transform him into a faithful follower of Jesus and humble servant of people. In this second of a powerful three-part episode, you’ll be reminded that no matter how far you may have wandered from God, you too can be transformed into a new creation in Christ!
