Knowing that you can't do it by yourself, I think the reason why having faith helps people in sobriety is that because we basically already think that we suck.
Jade’s story is one of grit, faith, and transformation. As a teenager, she stayed away from the party scene, but by 18, she found herself drawn into the world of drinking and partying. What started as innocent fun spiraled into a nightmare far worse than she could have imagined. Jade's journey took her to some dark places, culminating in a struggle with addiction that left her feeling lost and alone in Florida.
But this isn't just a tale of despair; it's a story of incredible resilience and hope. Jade managed to pull herself out of the depths of addiction by reconnecting with her faith. She rediscovered who she was before addiction took hold, finding solace and strength in her relationship with God. Working in the restaurant industry, where the pressures were high and the temptations were plenty, only made her journey more challenging.
However, it was through community support and her church that Jade found the courage to change her life. She recommitted herself to Christ, receiving her white chip as a symbol of her new beginning. Jade’s story serves as a powerful reminder that recovery is not just possible but can be deeply transformative. Her journey underscores the importance of community and faith in overcoming addiction.
By sharing her experiences, Jade hopes to inspire others to seek help and find the support they need to embark on their own paths to sobriety. Tune in to hear Jade’s moving story and discover how faith can be a guiding light in the darkest of times.
