What drives someone to seek a life without alcohol? Wayne Bugg's story on Real Recovery offers a raw and honest look into the transformative power of faith in overcoming addiction. Growing up in a high-crime area, Wayne faced the challenges of poverty and a broken family. His journey took him through dark paths, including substance abuse and gang involvement, but it was his unwavering belief in a greater purpose that led him to redemption.
In this episode, Wayne shares how moving to different places didn't solve his problems until he found strength through faith and community support. With humour and humility, he talks about his journey from selling drugs to becoming the Executive Director of St. Vincent de Paul, an organisation dedicated to helping those in need. His story is a testament to the power of faith and the importance of having a supportive community. The hosts, Bill Arnold and George P.
Fraser, bring their own experiences into the conversation, emphasising hope and the role of spirituality in recovery. This episode is a compelling reminder that no matter how far you've fallen, there is always a way back through faith and community. Are you ready to find your purpose and turn your life around?
