For 25 years, Justin Hightower fought a battle with addiction — one that left him broken, beaten down, and defeated. On September 8, 2020, he walked through the doors of Breaking Bonds Ministries and everything changed.
During his time in the program, Justin discovered something he had been missing all along — a true dependence on God, and the meaning of genuine friendship and love.
After completing Breaking Bonds, God directed Justin to Step In The Right Direction, a transition house where he rediscovered what it means to be a responsible adult and how to maintain a healthy, Christ-centered lifestyle.
Today, Justin is giving back in the most powerful way possible. God has placed him as a leader at Stepping Stone — the transition house for Breaking Bonds graduates — where he now pours into others the same way someone once poured into him.
“I am so thankful for the life I have now because I was led to Jesus through Breaking Bonds Ministries and am able to give back to the place that saved my life.” — Justin Hightower
