From Overdose to Advocacy: Jason Lennox's Journey on God Took Me to Las Vegas

The only reason I hung around long enough to understand some sort of solution to my problems was because I listened and I heard the people in the rooms that said: this is where I once was and this is what my life was like, and I connected with that.
