Pastor Fred Schumacher: Brutal Honesty and Spiritual Transformation in Recovery

And when the enemy comes in and he steals those things away from you, it becomes safer to be a pile of dirt. It's like once I recognize that I'm a pile of dirt, you can no longer call me a pile of dirt because it doesn't bother me anymore.
What happens when you mix brutal honesty with spiritual transformation? You get Pastor Fred Schumacher's riveting journey of recovery. In this episode of 'Full Potential, Now!', host Ted Izydor sits down with Pastor Fred for a no-holds-barred conversation about the darkest moments of addiction and the light that comes with genuine change. Pastor Fred doesn’t sugarcoat his experiences; he dives into the heartache, tragedy, and eventual spiritual awakening that helped him climb out of the depths of addiction.
He shares how community support, positive reinforcement, and personal growth played pivotal roles in his recovery. One of the standout moments is when Pastor Fred talks about the impact of childhood trauma on addiction and self-sabotage. His words resonate deeply, offering hope and inspiration to anyone facing similar struggles. As he puts it, 'It's like once I recognize that I'm a pile of dirt, you can no longer call me a pile of dirt because it doesn't bother me anymore'.
This episode is a must-listen for those looking for raw, real, and uplifting stories of transformation.
