Bo Sanchez, Truly Admirable
If you've heard him talk, read his articles, and especially know his story, you will undoubtedly admire Bo Sanchez.
Bo Sanchez is a lay preacher, most sought after corporate and inspirational speaker in the country, best selling author, and founder of the Light of Jesus Family and Truly Rich Club, among many things.
Why do people admire Bo Sanchez aside from what has been mentioned above?
He is a very humble person. People are drawn to him---which is the reason why LOJF has grown phenomenally in the last few years, because despite his status, he has remained down to earth.
You can approach him and talk to him (that is after working your way through the crowd asking for his autograph and photos), and he doesn't have this "I'm a leader and a celebrity now and I don't have time for you" kind of attitude. He always has a ready smile for everyone.
He admits his faults and frailties. He shows people his wounds and flaws and assure them that their past does not define their future. He walks his talks.

He has been bold enough to step out, revealing his struggles as a porn addict after having been sexually molested by people close to him.
People who have addictions find hope in his story. People who struggle and are burdened can relate to him.
We are all wounded in one way or another. And here's a spiritual guy, living a normal happy life with his wife and kids, assuring you that it's okay to fail. It's okay to fall into sin. It's okay to feel angry. It's okay to be human.
As long as you learn to control your emotions, as long as you surrender everything to God, as long as you make a decision that you will not stay stuck but continue to move forward.

Everyday, we are bombarded by different information that can trigger a lot of emotions. It is therefore very refreshing to hear encouraging words, to receive inspiration, and to be reminded that you are loved, and are beautiful no matter what the world say.
Here's a wounded healer assuring you that you too can be healed.
Bo Sanchez admits that he is not perfect. He is very human. He is sinful. He is still struggling. He is faced with temptations everyday. He is very like you and me.
But, that is why people admire him. They see themselves in him. But not just as a sinner, but a saint in the making. Not just as a victim but a victor. Temporarily broke, but will be eternally rich. Broken, but blessed. Lost, but has always been and will always be loved by God. Hurt, but hopeful.
He believes in you, that you can be truly rich in all areas of your life.
That's what people need. Hope.
That's what Bo Sanchez gives.
People need someone who believes in them.
That's what Bo Sanchez do.
And that's what makes him truly admirable.
