For a while, Coleman lived a double-life. What began as casual drinking slowly became something he couldn't control. Hidden behind excuses and normal appearances, alcoholism eventually led to severe pancreatitis, major abdominal surgery, five weeks in the hospital, and a fight for his life.

In this episode of Broken but Called, Coleman openly shares the story he once tried so hard to hide. We talk about the habits that fueled his addiction, the help he ignored, the fear of nearly dying, mindset shifts, and the incredible grace of God that met him in his darkest season.

Whether you've struggled with addiction, love someone who has, or simply believe "it could never happen to me," this conversation is a powerful reminder that sin keeps us in darkness, but healing begins when we bring our lives into the light.

Today's episode isn't about shame—it's about redemption, freedom, accountability, and the hope that no one is beyond the reach of Jesus.
