Erik Saldaña recounts his upbringing in Chicago, his parents' separation, and the positive influences that steered him away from gangs. Initially focused on sports, Erik later pursued a career in law enforcement and joined the Chicago Police Department. Encountering many challenges along the way, Erik turned to faith and began understanding Christian practices and the empathetic role required in law enforcement. His faith deepened as he engaged more with the Bible and sought mentorship, leading him to a pivotal role in his church's men's ministry. Despite initial hesitation, Erik embraced leadership, contributing to the ministry's growth by focusing on structure, discipline, and mentorship. 
His story highlights the importance of obedience to God's call, the impact of spiritual support, and the essential role of men in family and community.
