The day was coming when my children would find out that their
father had been a corrupt, powerful "drug lord" in a famous
Colombian drug cartel. I did not want them to only see that part of
my past identity. Instead, I wanted them to see their father as the
"powerful drug lord" whose life God changed.
After many years of sharing my story with thousands of young
people around the world, a dream was born in my heart to one day
write a shorter book that would tell my story but with a different
focus: not on the life of the former infamous drug lord, but to use the
drug lord's life to focus on life principles.
