When you fill that empty void in your life with the Lord instead of women, instead of drugs, instead of alcohol, instead of gaming, instead of literally anything else that you can fill, the only thing that can truly fill that void and stop that circle, you going in a circle is Jesus Christ. That's the only thing that can stop that circle. It's the only thing that'll never leave you on empty.
Matt Lucas's story is one that could easily be mistaken for a movie script. Growing up in Cleveland, Ohio, Matt's early life was anything but smooth. His path was riddled with substance abuse, criminal behavior, and more than a few brushes with death. Yet, through all the chaos, a thread of hope wove its way into his life—God's grace. This episode of ASAP Recovery takes you on a rollercoaster ride through Matt's turbulent past and his remarkable journey to redemption.
You'll hear about the countless times he should've died, the moment he actually did, and the pivotal point when he died to his old self and was reborn in Christ. Matt's transformation didn't happen overnight. It was at Heritage House, a faith-based recovery program, where he found the strength to turn his life around. Immersing himself in the Word and committing to live under God's authority, Matt discovered a renewed purpose.
His story is not just about personal redemption but also about his unwavering dedication to helping others find their way. Today, Matt is deeply involved in prison ministry, sharing his journey and spreading the message that no one is beyond redemption. His tale serves as a powerful reminder that with faith, even the darkest paths can lead to light.
