Silver Spoon to the Slammer: John Cantrell
Growing up, John Cantrell’s life was filled with limitless opportunities for the future. As a teenager, Cantrell quickly learned he was never ready for the party to stop like it did for others. This fast-paced lifestyle caught up with him in college as he constantly searched for ways to fill a void within himself. By the age of 22, Cantrell was facing a 60-month sentence in federal prison for distribution. Instead of letting these mistakes define his life, Cantrell claims prison saved his life. Cantrell attributes his transformation to giving his life completely over to God. Whereas he constantly searched for more when he had it all, Cantrell counts himself today more blessed than ever before. With a loving wife and a son who is a walking miracle, Cantrell’s story is filled with hope and inspiration he shares with others.
