In this episode, Ashley and I sit down for an inspiring conversation about our transition from pastoring to leading a recovery ministry with Teen Challenge.

Together, we dive into the critical role of community in fostering healing, the impact of COVID-19 on recovery programs, and why faith-based recovery programs see higher success rates when Jesus is the higher power. We also discuss key insights from two articles referenced in the conversation: "A Study in Spirituality in Recovery" and "National Quitters Day" at NationalToday.com. 

This episode highlights the challenges of scaling community in recovery, the importance of accountability, and how monthly support sustains these life-changing programs. Whether you're seeking inspiration, understanding, or tools to support loved ones, this discussion will encourage you to invest in the power of community and faith-centered transformation.

🎧 Tune in for a heartfelt conversation about hope, healing, and the strength found in walking together through life’s challenges.
