267. He Was Trafficked by His Own Family (Every Weekend)

About this episode

Angel Esparza shares the bone-chilling story of being trafficked by his own family, being injected with heroin, and being surrounded by chaos throughout his entire childhood. It wasn't until he was introduced to Jesus that love and happiness became a possibility in his life. You've never heard a story like this that starts with him on the door steps of a mobile home that pretends to be a day care yet was trading money, drugs, and alcohol in exchange for a weekend with Angel and his siblings that entailed abuse, manipulation, and trauma that would stay with him for years. Angel also opens up about the failed suicide attempts where God stepped in multiple times, from a ceiling fan breaking to a shotgun's firing pin being broken. This episode will send chills down your spine while reminding you Jesus is the GOOD NEWS and SAVIOR of the world. Angel even forgave one of his abusers, to his face! Share this podcast everywhere.
