And working the program walking with Christ has helped immensely in that area: my mental health, emotional health, and yeah, so it's that's the good news.
Imagine losing everything you hold dear—your career, your marriage, your sense of self—all because of addiction. In this heartfelt episode of 'Real Recovery', Leland opens up about his battle with alcohol and how it led him down a path of despair and loss. Raised in a chaotic home, Leland turned to alcohol as a way to cope with his feelings of loneliness and disconnection. His addiction cost him his job and his marriage, leaving him at rock bottom.
But it was in this darkest hour that Leland found a glimmer of hope. Realizing that being the master of his own life wasn't working, he surrendered to the lordship of Jesus Christ. This decision marked the beginning of his journey towards recovery and redemption. Leland shares the ups and downs of his recovery process, including multiple attempts at treatment and the invaluable support he received from his faith community.
His story is a powerful reminder of the transformative power of faith, forgiveness, and community support. Whether you're struggling with addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, Leland's story offers hope and inspiration for anyone seeking a way out of the darkness.
