David's Path to Healing: From Addiction to Spiritual Reconnection

Once I deleted God out of my life and pushed him to the side, that is when I started to do some really, really sad things.
What happens when you lose touch with your spirituality and find yourself spiraling into addiction? David C. Holland’s story sheds light on this very journey. Growing up in Prince George County, David faced deep-seated abandonment and trust issues despite being adopted by a loving family. These unresolved feelings led him down a tumultuous path, including dropping out of college and getting entangled in the world of drug dealing.
After numerous encounters with the law, David hit rock bottom and knew he had to make a change. This episode of 'A Shot of Hope: Recovery Stories' chronicles David's incredible transformation. His turning point came when he began to reconnect with his spirituality, which he had pushed aside for years. Joining the band at Helping Up Mission and playing the drums provided him with a sense of community and purpose.
David reflects on his past mistakes with remarkable honesty and offers heartfelt advice to those struggling with addiction. He emphasizes the importance of seeking help and never losing hope, no matter how dire things may seem. His story is a testament to resilience and the power of spiritual reconnection in overcoming life’s darkest moments. Tune in to hear David’s inspiring journey and find out how he turned his life around.
