Sarah sits down with lawyer and author Seth Haines. They talk about coping with pain, alcohol abuse, embracing a life of sobriety, and how stillness and solitude are avenues into deeper attachment to God.

Seth is a self-proclaimed working stiff who considers himself lucky enough to call the Ozark Mountains home. He has been married to the love of his life, Amber Haines, for twenty years, and together, they have four boys. Seth enjoys good sentences, good music, good food, and good fly fishing.
