Stephen Arrington was a Navy bomb disposal frogman, working with nuclear and convention weapons. His was a life of adventure, diving down to sunken wrecks, jumping out of airplanes, working with the Secret Service, the CIA and ATF. A marijuana mistake ended that career, then he accidently slipped into the drug underworld where he became a codefendant in the infamous John Z. DeLorean Drug Trial. In prison he realized all the mistakes were his own. He gave what he thought was a worthless life to Jesus Christ in a prison cell. Amazing, he becomes chief engineer of an inmate fire crew, leads seventeen lifesaving emergency responses and is released early from prison. Two years later he becomes chief diver and expedition leader for the Cousteau Society. For over five years he lives an odyssey of adventure, diving with great white sharks, humpback whales, dolphins and orcas that we catching and eating sharks. Steve left the job of his dreams to become a lay youth minister. He has since done over 1700 public school assemblies. He speaks at churches and for youth organizations. His goal in life is to motivate youth towards rights choices that lead to a meaningful and purpose driven life.
