In this conversation I had the privilege of interviewing Jeff Johnson. Founder of In His Grip Ministries. Jeff shares about his long road of addiction and how was ultimately to break free after 28 years.  During this conversation Jeff describes how after a terrible accident he went from using street drugs to abusing prescription drugs as his "drug of choice." Jeff had many "rock bottom" moments along the way but it was ultimately the possibility of losing his wife that was the final wake up call. Jeff and his wife Connie now travel all across the country and share their story to those caught in the grip of addiction. This is an incredibly inspiring story and a reminder that no matter how long you have been trapped in addiction there is hope!!

In our four-week series leading up to Jesus, we are going to examine what it means to follow Jesus. In this sermon, I cover what it means to follow Jesus and why following Jesus means that we order our lives around Him.

I am a former drug addict that has been radically transformed by Jesus. I currently serve as Lead Pastor of First Baptist Church Middletown, Va. This podcast will include my weekly sermons from First Baptist and other encouraging content along the way. 

In this episode I sit down with Rob Reynolds a former 17 year addict that has been living in the freedom of Christ for almost 10 years. Rob shares his story of how he overcame addiction and then went on to launch Freedom House, a residential Christ Centered program that is helping men in Augusta, WVA. This is a powerful conversation about what God can truly do with a surrendered life. You won't want to miss this conversation.

In this #anchorconversation I interview my older brother as he shares his journey out of addiction. A self-descried "master manipulator", Shawn soon began to realize that he had gotten so good at manipulating people that he even believed his own lies. He also shares what it finally took for him to break the hold addiction had on him and how he pursued a life of freedom. Shawn is currently serving as Program Manger at the Shenandoah Valley Adult and Teen Challenge where he helps other break the grip of addiction off of their lives.
