My Story with Addiction

One thing I keep learning about life is that although past circumstances shape us, often for the worse, it doesn't mean you can't change, find victory and hope with God's help.

I have struggled with addiction / alcoholism for over half my life and it almost robbed me of life itself. Through a lot of hard work, honesty, support groups and divine intervention I found sobriety and hope.

C. S. Lewis said, "You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending". This weekend, join me and my husband, Jerry, as we walk through my story from emptiness to wholeness and new beginnings.
