Good morning. Short email today to announce a new episode on the Energeia.LIVE podcast.
It's an interview I did in 2021 with a former mafia man named Robert Borelli (former last name is Engel, listen to the podcasts to find out why he had to change) in the Gambino crime family.
To make a long story short, Robert ruined his life through a series of missteps and really careless
actions. But turned his life around after being incarcerated in federal prison.
Here's the description from the episode show notes:
In this compelling episode of Energeia.LIVE, host James D. Newcomb revisits an insightful interview from early 2021 with Robert Borrelli, a former member of the infamous Gambino crime family. Borrelli’s journey from a life deeply entrenched in the mafia during the 1970s through the early 1990s to a devoted Christian and
author is nothing short of remarkable.
Dive into the dark depths of Borrelli’s past as he recounts his rise in the mafia ranks, only to fall victim to drug addiction – a misstep that led to his rejection by the mafia and eventual arrest by federal officers. His turning point came when, in exchange for a reduced sentence, he testified against his former mafia colleagues, entering the federal Witness Protection Program.
Discover how Borrelli’s
incarceration became a transformative experience, leading him to a life of faith and redemption. His story, captured in his book, is a testament to his resilience and transformation, described by Borrelli as being “rescued by angels with guns” – the federal marshals who arrested him.
Listeners can delve deeper into Borrelli’s story through his website robertborrelli.com, where his book is available for purchase.
It's a great story of personal
redemption by relying on the grace of God, and I encourage you to listen.
