Listen to the latest 60 second episode of Integrity Moments with Rick Boxx
Luis Guitierrez was sentenced to life in prison for murder. After 15 years in prison, Luis began following Jesus and started work for Seat King, a business housed inside the prison where Luis resided.
Luis asked his boss, Pete Ochs, to represent him at a parole hearing. When Luis’ hearing date drew near, Luis panicked because he had learned that Pete was in Guatemala on a business trip.
To Luis’ surprise, Pete made expensive arrangements to leave Guatemala immediately. Today Luis is free from prison and impacts many lives through his business, Redemption Tattoo.
John 15:13 teaches, “Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.”
Loving our employees sometimes requires sacrifice, but the kingdom benefit can be great as in Luis’ case.
