The Story of Redemption and Forgiveness - An Interview with The Loves

The Power of Forgiveness with Dwayne Staten

Good Morning everyone! I have a special treat for you all today! I interviewed Bobby and Cheryl Love! If you know who they are (even if you don't) they went viral for their story on the Humans of New York Instagram account. Bobby had his first run ins with the law at thirteen, by his early twenties he was a master thief with a serious criminal record and then he was slapped with a thirty year prison sentence! Yet even with good behavior, making parole and regaining his freedom weren't guaranteed so he made a plan. He jumped off the back of a prison bus in North Carolina transporting him to do roadwork, escaped on foot to a bus station, fled to New York and reinvented his life. It wasn't until decades later when he was married and had kids that the FBI and NYPD caught up to him! When I tell you his story is amazing... IT. IS. AMAZING!!!!!
