Ex Mafia w/ Michael Franzese | Girls Gon...

Girls Gone Bible
About this episode
GGB GANGGGG :)

Michael Franzese was one of the most notorious mob bosses of the 80s. After 10 years in prison, this former "Prince of the Mafia" is now a man on a mission for the King of Kings. Michael's amazing story and engaging delivery has brought record attendance to events all over the country.

Michael's story is a modern-day Damascus Road experience, from his early days in the Mob and rise to power to God's leading him to do the unthinkable: quit the Mob and follow Jesus. In fact, Nobody of Franzese's rank had ever just walked away – and lived. Until now.

Michael's compelling story of transformation is featured in his autobiography, Blood Covenant. He has also written several other books including This Thing Of Ours, and The Good, the Bad, and the Forgiven. He has appeared widely in both Christian and secular high-profile media, including The 700 Club, Life magazine, Vanity Fair, Sports Illustrated, GQ, The Today Show, Fox News, Fortune magazine, 48 Hours, NBC Nightly News, and many others.

we're so grateful for voices like Michael's who praise Jesus in places He's not welcome.

we love you guys so much.
Jesus loves you more.
-Ang & Ari
