Former soccer player Paco Bazán is going through his best moment as a communicator. In addition to being in charge of 'El Deportivo: en otro campo', the athlete has achieved great support from his audience in Ritmo Romántica and in online programs. Added to this is the great peace that he has achieved in recent months, because he has given himself to God and the Catholic religion.
In a recent interview with La República, Paco Bazán was happy for his professional growth and also because the pact he has made with God has given him the peace of mind he always dreamed of. Additionally, the former goalkeeper spoke of his separation from his wife, Janice, and his vow of chastity for more than two years.
—Are you the new conceited person on radio, television and social networks?
—I have to take advantage because that lasts a summer.
—Are you in your 'prime'?
—I think so, but only with humility, because everything passes. It's a moment, and you have to take advantage of it, enjoy it, keep trying, work hard, and let it last as long as God wants.

—What is the difference between being on TV and on the radio?
—They are two completely different worlds; both exciting. TV has that live adrenaline of knowing that on the other side there are people who are connected to you through their screen. So, it is more visual, more direct, perhaps less imaginative. That is, you have the possibility of breaking that fourth wall through the camera. And the radio is incredible, it is a fantasy world because it is pure imagination, games, voices. You create characters that are not in the cabin. All that nuance makes it an incredible place.
Paco Bazán and his pact with God
—You said you gave yourself to God, would you leave everything, just like Katy Jara did?
—Personal transformations are never the same, each one has their calling and their way of encountering God. Her thing (Katy Jara) is more extreme, it's all or nothing, she has left everything to follow the Lord. I feel that he wants me into the world to have another type of conversion. They are different paths. Who knows if one day I continue to advance, if I continue to purify myself, if I continue to grow spiritually and if my love for Christ continues to grow within my Catholic doctrine, maybe, also like Katy, I will leave everything for him.
—Does your vow of chastity with God still stand?
—Of course, it's not because of a human creature, it's with him. That's my way of leaving everything for him. Within my dogma of faith, I already have the sacrament. I am already married by the Catholic Church, and that sacrament is indissoluble; It's until death do us part. So, you may be separated from the flesh, but not spiritually. In that way of understanding faith, I remain spiritually connected to my wife. So if I get involved with another person, I am in adultery.

—But you are separated from your wife…
—I am adulterating, because the sacrament is indissoluble, it is a blood pact with God and I am going to respect the pact with God. That's my way of letting it all go. I talk about it, because maybe it can help someone. Sometimes I don't speak it, because many people don't believe you, (they call me) a Pharisee or a false prophet, as if I were flourishing.
—Why did you dare to reveal your vow of chastity?
—There are many people who are going through circumstances similar to mine. When I have given my testimony, there is a lot of 'hate' from one side of the world. But there is a person who is going through very deep pain, a terrible spiritual dryness and who has hit rock bottom, and I know that this testimony is valuable to him. It happened to me because they have written to me, they have told me: “Thanks to your testimony and making it public, I have understood what this is about.” It is a surrender to all or nothing for the love of Christ. I do not have to leave the world from my position as a communicator, as an entertainer, but in my human part, as a man, there is a renunciation of my pleasure, my lust and my sexuality out of respect for the sacrament.
