Video
Men’s Alliance

Former Marine Eric “America” Sandoval (4 combat tours) opens up about a cascade of traumas—Dear John on deployment, performing CPR on a Marine who died by suicide, a motorcycle crash where he flat-lined four times, divorce, job loss, PTSD—and how Jesus met him in the ditch, the hospital, and at rock bottom. This is a raw story about sin, repentance, sanctification, brotherhood, and why men need tribe.
