154. Blackout to Blessing with Melissa Huray


Listen Later

Have you felt like you have had shameful secrets that you kept hidden from everyone? Beyond the lights and the camera, Melissa Huray spent her nights in darkness blacking out in bars and was spiraling. What started as an escape from her oppressive childhood had become a crippling addiction to alcohol. She kept the secret hidden for 15 years. Along with alcohol, Melissa also would seek men for love, struggled with anxiety and panic attacks and food obsession. God was always seeking her out through people and circumstances. She finally realized that it wasn’t a “what” that could save her, but “Who” and that was Jesus. Melissa is currently the Executive Director of the Lindell Recovery Network and host of The Hope Report. She has written the book “Blackout to Blessings”, which is a thrilling and captivating story of the details of her painful life of drunken’ blackouts to eventual salvation in Jesus Christ. Be encouraged as you hear God’s redemption in this powerful testimony of recovery.

“For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” ~Ephesians 2:10
