Wow, that's the exact three words that I said in the exact prayer that I said at 11:30 pm on October 9th, in Carlsbad, California, on a street called Acacia, and I looked in the mirror and I said: God, help me, and I haven't had any drugs or alcohol since then.
Ever wondered what it takes to turn a life around completely? Meet Gary Coffman, a man who hit rock bottom with his drinking and drug use but found a way out through faith and determination.
