Getting to the relationship with Jesus – John’s story

Imagine hitting rock bottom and finding the strength to climb back up through faith. That's exactly what John Bartholomew experienced. In this episode of 'Real Recovery', hosts Bill Arnold and George Fraser sit down with John to uncover his incredible journey from addiction to a deep, personal relationship with Jesus.

This newfound faith gave him the strength to repair broken relationships and serve others in his journey to sobriety. John's story is a vivid reminder of the transformative power of repentance and forgiveness.

As he beautifully puts it, 'to know the creator, to know him as our best friend, to walk a whole new life out with him' is truly life-changing. Tune in to hear John's full story and find inspiration for your own journey towards recovery.
