Third Man in the Ring
How God Saved Me From Addiction, Jail, and Suicide

In this powerful episode of Third Man in the Ring, Popeye Ray sits down with John from Calvary Chapel Chino Valley to share a story of redemption, grace, and transformation.
John grew up in church but eventually fell into rebellion, addiction, and a destructive lifestyle that led him to jail, broken relationships, and even a suicide attempt. At his lowest point, when everything seemed lost, God intervened in a way that would completely change the direction of his life.
Today, John serves in ministry alongside Pastor David Rosales, helping lead men and encouraging others who are struggling with addiction, despair, and brokenness.
This episode is a powerful reminder that no one is beyond the reach of God’s grace.
If you or someone you know is struggling, this story is proof that transformation is possible.
