MY STORY

“Welcome to Men of Purpose. My name is Danuel Pena—and for a long time, I lived without any purpose or direction.

I was deep in addiction… in and out of men’s homes, rehabs, juvenile halls, and prison. I didn’t think I’d ever get out. I didn’t think there was any hope left for me.

But everything changed when I came to know Jesus Christ.

In Him, I found something I had never had before—meaning. Hope. A reason to live.

Romans 8:28 says, ‘And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose.’

That verse? That’s not just for me—it’s for you too.

God has a specific purpose for your life. You’re not here by accident. You were created for more.

Men of Purpose is here to help you step into that calling—to become the man God designed you to be. A man of strength. A man of conviction. A man grounded in the truth of God’s Word.

Our goal is to empower men to rise up—become better husbands, fathers, and providers.

This is your moment. This is your time. Welcome to Men of Purpose.”
