Ever wondered what drives someone to seek a life without alcohol? In this episode, Bill Arnold and George Fraser tackle the third step of recovery, which is all about handing over your will and life to God's care. They kick off with some humour and biblical verses that remind us how easy it is to get into trouble when we think we're wise in our own eyes. But the heart of the episode lies in Kelly's gripping story.
He was once lost in the chaos of drugs and crime, but found a way out through faith and resilience. His journey began in a turbulent childhood, where he was removed from his family due to their substance abuse issues. Despite the odds, Kelly's life took a turn when he encountered mentors who refused to give up on him.
His transformation was sparked by a Christian-based programme in prison, where he discovered the power of God's love and the importance of community. Now, Kelly works at a halfway house, helping others find their way out of darkness. This episode is not just about recovery; it's about redemption, hope, and the possibility of a new beginning.
So, if you're curious about how faith can change lives or how people overcome their past, this is an episode you won't want to miss. How do you think faith plays a role in overcoming addiction?
