What drives someone to seek a life without alcohol? Real Recovery's latest episode brings you the compelling story of Henry, a man who turned his life around through faith and dedication to helping others. Hosts Bill Arnold and George Fraser tackle the twelfth step of recovery, which emphasises sharing your story to aid those struggling with addiction. Henry, a man who meets addicts at their level, is living proof of this step's power.
His journey from sneaking beers in first grade to wielding a gun in sixth grade is nothing short of astonishing. Despite the turbulent path, including time in Texas prisons and battling crack addiction, Henry found salvation in Christ. His testimony is not just about personal redemption but about spreading hope and showing others the way. Henry's story underscores the importance of establishing new habits and finding mentors who guide you towards recovery.
With a focus on spiritual awakening, he demonstrates how the joy of recovery lies in witnessing lives transformed by God. Bill and George highlight how Henry encourages right thinking, believing it precedes right actions. His work at The Salvation Army Adult Rehabilitation Center in Minneapolis is a testament to how one person's transformation can multiply into many. If you're in recovery or know someone who is, Henry's story might just be the inspiration needed to keep moving forward.
