Former Capt. Albert Baloloy Joshua Albert admits that in his  earnest desire to change society, he took extra-legal means against the Philippine government, along with others,   and subsequently spent five long years within the walls of a military detention facility. Those walls imprisoned him physically but set his spirit free in fellowship with God. Know more about his story as he talks about his life Beyond Oakwood.

“The precious years I spent in incarceration paved the way for a stronger foundation where the prospect of a better life was not just possible but assured. The renewing of my mind brought about by the transforming power of the Word of God was my greatest milestone and it happened because of the Oakwood incident. I may have had the most sinister plans at that time, but they didn’t stand against the sovereignty of God. He was in full control. He is and will always be." - Albert Baloloy.
