The pushing away from the call to ministry was brought to you courtesy of Budweiser and Marlboro and various other substances I started drinking and using when I was 11 years old. Come from a family with a history of alcoholism and just started drinking and partying at a very young age.
Ever wondered how someone can transform their life from rebellion to redemption? Meet Chaplain Justin Cohen, a man whose journey is nothing short of extraordinary. Growing up in Northeast Philadelphia, Justin received a call to ministry at just 11 years old, but it wasn't until years later, after enlisting in the Navy and experiencing his own struggles, that he fully embraced his spiritual path.
