Markus and Chelsea share their powerful journey from addiction to redemption, illustrating how God transformed their marriage after facing the darkest seasons of their lives.

• Markus grew up without a father in a chaotic California home where football became his identity and escape
• Chelsea was raised in a structured Christian home with perfectionism deeply ingrained in her worldview
• A career-ending shoulder injury led Markus into prescription painkiller addiction that nearly destroyed their marriage
• Chelsea faced life-threatening hyperemesis gravidarum during pregnancy while unaware of the extent of Markus's addiction
• The turning point came when Chelsea called police on Marcus, leading him to Teen Challenge rehabilitation
• Markus experienced complete deliverance through surrender rather than a traditional 12-step approach
• After rehabilitation, they launched Reach1 despite criticism and financial uncertainty
• Their story demonstrates that no one is too far gone for redemption and how pain can be transformed into purpose

If our story touched you, please share it with someone who might be struggling with addiction or walking alongside someone who is. Remember that sometimes the hardest decisions lead to the greatest healing.
