I had a serious addiction to women. I still have a serious addiction to women. It's just one woman, thank you Jesus. I've been married to my awesome wife for 12 years in August. We have three amazing kids - 16, 15, and 11. So, my story starts when I was very young.
Ever wondered what happens when a rock star's dreams collide with a journey of faith and recovery? Meet Palmer, the newest co-host of 'Unashamed Recovery', who has spent his life on stage but not always in the spotlight of sobriety. This episode, cheekily titled 'Sex, Drugs, & Rock N Roll [without the drugs]', dives deep into Palmer's unique story. Unlike many tales of addiction, Palmer's struggle wasn't with substances but with the allure of fame, fortune, and women.
Join hosts Josh and Drew as they sit down with Palmer to uncover his past, his battles, and his remarkable path to leading worship and finding true purpose. Palmer, also the lead singer for Given Grace, shares how he shifted from chasing the rock star dream to embracing a life of faith and recovery. His candid testimony sheds light on the different forms addiction can take and the powerful role faith can play in overcoming them.
Whether you're in recovery yourself or supporting someone who is, Palmer's story offers a fresh perspective on finding hope and healing. Tune in for an episode filled with raw honesty, spiritual insights, and a reminder that recovery is a journey worth taking.
