George A. Wood: Finding Hope in the Darkest Times

Every day of my life is nothing short of a miracle for a guy like me that has been through what I've been through, the places I've been, the things I've done to myself, the things I've done to others, and to recognize the things that God is still doing inside of me and for me and in my life is just a miracle, completely every day.
Imagine battling addiction while feeling utterly alone and misunderstood. George A. Wood knows this struggle all too well. In this episode of 'Anchored by the Sword', George opens up about his harrowing journey through addiction, the devastating loss of his sister and brother, and his path to recovery. He shares candidly about the isolation he felt checking into a detox center and the toxic help he witnessed from both Christian and secular communities.
But George's story is not just about the pain; it's about finding hope and strength through faith and community. George is the co-author of 'The Uncovery', a book that sheds light on addiction and mental health, and he's deeply involved in pastoral counseling through The Timothy Initiative and The Sober Truth Project. Living in Tampa, FL with his family, George dedicates his life to helping others who feel lost and broken.
He emphasizes the importance of community and education in understanding addiction, making his story a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with similar issues. Through this heartfelt conversation, George highlights the transformative power of faith and the crucial role of support systems in recovery. His message is clear: no one should feel alone or judged in their battle with addiction.
If you're looking for a story of resilience and faith, this episode offers a powerful reminder that recovery is possible, even in the darkest times.
