The mob is often portrayed in movies and TV, but very few people have inside knowledge of organized crime works. Even less can say they've been as high-ranking as today's guest—and left.

In this powerful conversation, Pastor Greg Laurie sits down with former mob boss Michael Franzese to explore his dramatic journey from organized crime to a life of faith. Once a high-ranking member of the Colombo crime family, Michael shares how his time in prison became the turning point that led him to Jesus.
