🎙️ Episode Recap

Mondo De La Vega (PBP24): Gangster to Grace

This week’s episode featured an incredible story of redemption. Mondo De La Vega shared his raw and inspiring journey from gang life in Los Angeles to becoming a minister and television host. It's a testament to the transformative power of faith.


🧠 What We Learned This Week

This episode carried a message that hits home for many:

  • Mondo’s testimony is a reminder to all of us to rebuke our ways of thinking of others judgmentally. Everyone has a path and a purpose—regardless of their past life decisions.

  • Our guest’s opinions are their own and don’t necessarily reflect those of Pastor Paul Begley or the podcast. We believe in education through dialogue and welcome open minds.

  • 🙌 Help us hit our new goal: 5,000 YouTube subscribers! We're on our way—Subscribe Here
