I haven't gone back. I do wrestle with this, with people who profess to believe in Christ, verbally say they believe, but yet lack the power of that evidence in their life. Because of my walk, I've noticed that when I came to Christ, I didn't turn back from it. You can see evidence in my life of Christ working.
Heartbreak can lead people down some dark paths, and for Jherek, it was no different. After his heart was shattered, he turned to drugs in an attempt to numb the pain. But even as the years passed and his addiction deepened, something remarkable was happening. God was quietly working on Jherek’s heart, softening it bit by bit.
One day, while sitting in his van and listening to Faith Radio, he heard a message so clear and powerful that it cut through all his doubts. That moment was a turning point for him. He realized that the truth he heard could withstand anything the world threw at it, and it changed his life forever. Now, with over a decade of sobriety under his belt, Jherek’s story is a powerful testament to the transformative power of faith.
Growing up in Minnesota, he was a star athlete with a bright future in basketball and track. But after experiencing a devastating breakup, he spiraled into depression and drug use. Despite the darkness, there was always a glimmer of hope. The unwavering truth he discovered on Faith Radio gave him a new purpose: to share his faith and help others struggling with addiction.
In this episode of Real Recovery, Jherek opens up about his journey from the depths of addiction to finding hope and purpose through faith in Christ. His story is not just about overcoming addiction; it's about finding an unmovable truth that can guide anyone out of their darkest moments.
