Episode description

My guest Roger Cadena shares his story and the events that shaped his life growing up in the "Back of the Yards" neighborhood on the South Side of Chicago.  He witnessed a lot of violence as a youth, which eventually led him to become a perpetrator and victim of violence himself. He ends up doing time in prison and struggles to do right upon his release. He witnesses first hand God transform his older brother from a violent man, drug addict to becoming a man of God. And Roger begins to question if maybe God can do that in his life as well?
