Michael Franzese grew up as the son of the notorious Underboss of New York’s
violent and feared Colombo crime family. Intelligent, handsome and ambitious,
he quickly rose within the ranks of organized crime. Franzese at his most
affluent generated an estimated $5 to $8 million per week from legal and illegal
businesses. Fourteen law enforcement agencies poured money into a taskforce
with a sole objective—bring down the sophisticated young mobster.
It was a life filled with power, luxury…and deadly
violence.
Then an innocent young woman walked into Michael’s
life. Her exotic beauty captivated him. Her faith in God
changed his life forever.
Come along on Michael’s journey from the mob, to
prison, to a brave new life. It’s a story that will inspire
you and give you hope. It’s a story with a powerful
lesson: No one is so bad that they can’t be forgiven—
life can begin again.

Here are just a few comments about the power of
Michael’s testimony and the impact he is making on lives:
“This is a phenomenal book! Michael Franzese – a mobster raking in millions for the crime syndicate – seemed an unlikely
candidate for God’s grace. But in this captivating account, you’ll discover how God has radically revolutionized his life – and
how He is available to transform your future as well.”
Lee Strobel, AuthoR “The Case for Christ” and “The Case for the Real Jesus”
“Michael Franzese is a trophy of God’s grace. His testimony is riveting. He had our congregation on the edge of their seats. If
you haven’t heard his story, you owe it to yourself to read this booklet, anwd then get his book and video.”
Dr. David Jeremiah, Senior Pastor of Shadow Mountain Community Church and Founder & CEO of Turning Point
“Michael, you are a valuable resource to coaches on every level. Your experiences give you a unique perspective from which
all coaches can learn.”
Tai M. Brown, Education & Professional Development The American Football Coaches Association
“Michael Franzese is the real deal and I mean that in every sense of the term. His testimony is genuine. Michael was truly a
‘made’ member of organized crime. He is also now a ‘made’ member of the family of God. It is so inspiring to see a man skip
to such great heights and embody such Christ-like humility.”
Pastor Steven Furtick, Lead Pastor Elevation Church
”Michael, thank you for the outstanding presentation at the 2000 Rookie Career Development Program. Once again, the
impact you made on the young men should have a positive influence for many years to come.”
Kevin M. Hallinam, Exec. Director of Security and Facility Management Office of the Commissioner, Major League Baseball
“Michael, you helped ensure that 54 NBA rookies were provided with valuable information and resources that will enable them
to proactively make quality decisions and successfully adapt to the lifestyle and challenges of the NBA.
Rory Sparrow, Senior Director NBA Player Program
“Testimonial books have little meaning and minor impact unless the life of the writer truly represents the content. I can tell
you that my dear friend Michael Franzese is living a life of dedication to God and fulfilling His purpose in sharing his faith.
Michael didn’t write this book for those sitting on the sidelines but rather to equip you to get into the game and share your
faith. Read it for personal inspiration and share it with someone to impact a life.”
Grant Teaff, Executive Director of the American Football Coaches Association
“Michael Franzese has a fascinating, riveting, and dramatic story of redemption and renewal. This former mafia prince is
now a humble man whose story God is using to inspire and change others. Michael’s story has challenged, blessed, and was
transformational in thousands of lives. He is the real deal and a humble follower of Jesus.”
Gene Appel, Lead Pastor Willow Creek Community Church
