The Journey

From Tragedy to Story

Chapter One

The Tragedy

Shot at 16. Blinded in an instant. What could have been the end became the beginning of the greatest journey of my life.

Chapter Two

The Transformation

Instead of ending everything, it became the flame God used to set the world on fire.

"God only allowed the enemy to close the eyes on my face just to open up the eyes of my heart. Now, God uses me to help those who can see better than I can, but are still searching."

Chapter Three

The Mission

For over 25 years, this story has reached lives across the world — through churches, youth ministries, and communities across the United States and internationally.

Since 2013, my wife and I have served at the Fresno County Juvenile Justice Campus, walking alongside at-risk youth and their families.

Chapter Four

The Miracle

In 2024, God brought the story full circle when the man who shot me stood on stage at my church, and together we worshiped the God who forgave and redeemed us both.

Book Evangelist Loto

"I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom: Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching… But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry."

2 Timothy 4:1–5
