Enoch Tupuono grew up in Otara, New Zealand — one of the
toughest, most impoverished communities in the country.
Abandoned by his father, raised in violence, and consumed
by anger, Enoch had every reason to believe nobody cared
whether he lived or died. But at 15 years old, he walked
into a church with the wrong intentions — and walked out
completely transformed by four words he had never truly
heard before. “Jesus loves you.”

What followed was one of the most remarkable journeys of
faith, hardship, and redemption you will ever hear. From
the streets of Otara to a prison cell — and ultimately
into the arms of a God who never once let him go.
