Real Recovery

Bill and George take a deeper look at each of the steps, providing helpful Scripture along the way. Outlining the importance of taking things one day at a time, learning to rely on the Lord to help us, and much more.

Our minds can play tricks on us and often times lead us down a dark road if we listen to those voices. We always have the choice to listen to another voice but that can only happen with help from the Lord- and Zach experienced this when he got to the end of his road. Choosing to believe God loves us no matter what we've done, changed everything.

*This show originally aired on March 7, 2021 Stephanie was very driven, focused and bright growing up but one experience & following life circumstances led her down a path of destruction. Alcoholism led to drug addiction and a near death experience, but what the enemy meant for evil in her life (Genesis 50:20)- He turned for good.

Often times even when we are lost and not seeking the Lord in any ways, He is still intervening to keep us alive. David felt this a number of times in life but it wasn't until he learned that all he needed to do was accept Jesus that things started to change. Looking back he can say that "you have to die - in order to be raised."

Renae Danberry, LADC at Christian Family Solutions, joins Bill and George to discuss treating people's mental health with the same effort, time, and resources as someone's substance abuse. They unpack the balance of using tough love and choosing to step back and why the process of recovery doesn't truly start until you leave a recovery facility.

There are a number of people (especially kids) who want to get out of their fractured situation but it takes faithful individuals to reach out and love on them to make a difference. This has been the mission of Peter Wohler (executive director at Source MN) since 1995 and the journey has included plenty of learning experiences along the way.

*This show originally aired on February, 14 2021 Joel Carlson grew up in a loving, Christian home. However, as an adult, his greed and narcissism led him down a path of not wanting to keep up with the Jones' but be the Jones' with whom people tried to keep up. This led to alcoholism, a felony conviction and time in prison.

Choosing cheap substitutes in exchange for God's promises can seem very short-sided and easy to avoid but many pick the former. Adam Comer was in the darkest season of his life when he heard a hope filled Easter message just when he needed it most. It changed his whole life mindset- shifting to serving Him at whatever the cost.

It often times can take hitting rock bottom for someone to finally hear God, even if He's been calling out for a long time. When Ron finally heard and responded to His voice, he went from hopeless to heaven. Even through multiple attempts to end it all, the Lord had a greater plan to use it all for His glory and gift him with happy feet.
