Being apart of the Martinez clan was not easy; Max was born into a life of wealth and privilege. His father and uncle treated him as if he were royalty.  The Martinez did not start out this way. Max’s great grandfather migrated from Caracas, Venezuela to Port of Spain, Trinidad he married and settled down in the small town of San Juan. Max’s great grandfather Maximilian Martinez was not your average man he was eccentric about living everyday for God. Maximilian believed that there was an invisible war going on right here on earth and that many unexplained events could be solved through this. He was a spiritually blessed man, and was very poor. His wife Allison Page Martinez gave him one son whom they named Maximilian Martinez, junior.

Maximilian, Senior, developed into what was known to locals as a spiritual worker. Day in and day out Maximilian worked tirelessly fighting dark entities and demons on behalf of his clients. He never charged them, he only requested that they bring their own supplies or pay for them. Maximilian was a great man, he eventually died of a stroke from being overworked, and He took on too many clients. This had a very profound affect on his son Maximilian, Jr.; he took his fathers death very hard. His mother struggled to provide for both of them. She raised livestock, and grew fruit not only to feed her son and herself but also, to help earn a living so that she could send him to school. If it weren’t for the chickens and pigs they sold and ate, things would have been harder.

Maximilian watched his mother suffer she was a beautiful woman she could have remarried, but she refused. Allison never got over losing her husband. Maximilian remembered his mother’s struggles and his father’s sacrifices and vowed to not let his family suffer in poverty. He felt that if his parents had the tools that they needed meaning money. His father would have lived longer he would have been healthier and stronger to fight for his clients. This was why he became obsessed with being physically fit and healthy with the use of natural herbs and fresh healthy food. Maximilian, Jr., did follow in his father’s footsteps. Becoming a worker in spiritual warfare however, he was not like his father. Although God had blessed the Martinez family not all lived up to the Martinez name.
