Justin's Journey: Finding Redemption from Heroin Addiction through Faith

I think there's a transition that happens, getting away from my love of myself, which it might be I'm going to stop using for me where I want to stay sober, but my love of God and getting to know God is so much greater than my desire for sobriety that that helps.
Imagine being just 16 years old and already ensnared by heroin addiction. That's the stark reality Justin faced, but his story is one of incredible transformation. In this episode of 'Real Recovery', hosts Bill Arnold and George Fraser sit down with Justin to discuss his path from addiction to a life renewed by faith. Justin doesn't just talk about quitting drugs; he reveals how God's love became the cornerstone of his recovery.
He shares that true healing comes not from self-will but from a deep, spiritual connection with God. This episode delves into the critical role of community support and the ever-present risk of relapse, emphasizing the urgency of seeking help. Justin, now a program director at Redemption House, advocates for a Gospel-centered approach to recovery, stressing that repentance and forgiveness are vital. His journey offers a beacon of hope for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is.
Through candid conversations and heartfelt anecdotes, this episode underscores the transformative power of faith and community. Tune in for a story that promises to inspire and uplift, showing that no matter how dark the path, redemption is always within reach.
