LOS ANGELES, Nov. 18, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Can individuals hopelessly lost in crime, addiction, and destructive lifestyles find help, wholeness, and new life through faith in Jesus Christ? Sonny Arguinzoni — whose own early life in inner-city Brooklyn was nearly destroyed by drug abuse, crime, and gang activity before he came to Christ — has been saying a loud and resounding YES for nearly fifty years.

As founder of Victory Outreach International, a global ministry that takes hope and healing to the most oppressed inner cities and spiritually dark places on earth, Arguinzoni has seen thousands of men and women with lives destroyed by alcohol and drugs, prostitution, crime, gangs, and other vices experience miraculous transformation through faith in Christ.

Now Arguinzoni is sharing some of the most compelling of those incredible transformations through a new weekly TV reality series, Treasures: True Life Stories, on global Christian television leader Trinity Broadcasting Network.

With a flair that combines one-on-one personal interviews with drama and a "True Crime" intensity, each week Treasures shares a miraculous story that demonstrates the power of God to save and transform individuals seemingly past hope and redemption. It's stories of men and women like:

– Yvonne Martinez, whom Christ rescued from drug addiction, rape, and a horrendous attempt on her life, and who today is helping other young women find hope and freedom.

– Ezra LaTurco, whose drug use, crime, and gang connections were leading him to destruction before God turned his life around.

– Kris Sorenson, once bound by addiction to heroin and meth until God reached past the hopelessness and saved him.

– Priscilla Oilvera, whose childhood abuse at the hands of family members led to years of confusion, destructive relationships, and brokenness — until she finally encountered the true love of God.

"Each episode of this unique program is a powerful retelling of Christ's redemption story in the most unforgettable way possible — one on one," said Sonny Arguinzoni. "Treasures is designed to dramatically show the power of God to transform and restore even the most hopeless of individuals."

Treasures: True Life Stories airs each Friday at 11 p.m. Pacific (9 p.m. Central, 8 p.m. Eastern) on the Trinity Broadcasting network.
