E14 - Jesus (No, Not That One)

Join me and my co-host Louie Diaz LIVE for a remarkable episode on “The Empty Chair, for the addict that didn’t make it” with our special guest, Jesus Ruiz. Jesus Ruiz, a recovering addict of nine years and former gang leader began to use drugs and alcohol at an incredibly young age. His early use led him to many debacles, life as a gang member, and 16 years in and out of prison. While incarcerated, he accepted the gospel and began to turn his mess into a MESSAGE. Jesus has found his purpose and has been on the streets preaching to those in need. Jesus and his wife, Wanda are leaders in the Haverhill community and founders of “Leaving the Streets Ministry” a non-profit re-entry center for youths that has received notability from the Mayor of Haverhill as the “Volunteer of the Year”. Join me in his remarkable story of perseverance, and how his past allows him to serve those on the streets and offer HOPE and a bright future to our youth struggling in the community.
