In this raw, hilarious, and surprisingly heartfelt episode, Ruslan opens up about what life was like before faith—a chaotic mix of GTA-style decisions, strip club misadventures, and near run-ins with the Mexican police… all before 8th grade. But this isn’t just shock value—it’s a powerful story of how God’s grace finds us in the middle of dysfunction.

He reflects on his early teen years—unsupervised, caught up with older kids, and experiencing things no 12-year-old should. From sneaking into clubs in Tijuana to accidentally causing one dog to kill another, the stories are wild… but the twist? Two older gang members named Carl and “the homie” actually tried to protect him—telling him to stay in school, avoid drugs, and walk away from street life.

This episode is both funny and sobering—a reminder that God sometimes uses the most unlikely people to plant seeds of hope.
