The Top Gorilla’s Grace | Bob Beam (Part 4)

"I was useless for the kingdom of heaven... and now I want to be productive." After 18 years behind bars, Bob Beam finally steps back into a world he barely recognizes—one filled with cell phones and earbuds instead of beepers. In this fourth installment, Bob shares the incredible "coincidence" of Arthur, an eccentric fellow inmate whose belongings Bob protected with his reputation as the "top gorilla." Discover how that one act of protection led to a $3,000 "home plan" deposit in Philadelphia and why Bob’s first mission upon release was to find a community where he wouldn't "bump his head" alone.
