Twenty-four years ago today, my life changed forever. At a pool in Portsmouth Ohio I drank my last beer with a friend who was dying of cancer.
On July 4th, MY Independence Day, God began the good work of rescuing me from alcohol and drugs. Today, by His grace, I celebrate 24 years of sobriety.
If you had told me back then that God would one day allow me to pastor, lead Celebrate Recovery, help others find freedom, and experience the incredible blessings of a godly wife, an amazing family, true friendships, and a life filled with purpose, I would have never believed you.
I’m not standing here because I’m stronger than anyone else. I’m standing here because Jesus is faithful. Every day for the past 24 years, His grace has been enough. He took what the enemy meant for destruction and turned it into a testimony of hope.
There have been mountain-top moments and valley seasons. I’ve laughed, cried, buried friends, celebrated miracles, and watched God change countless lives. Through it all, He’s never left me.
If you’re reading this and wondering if there’s hope for you, there is. No matter how many times you’ve fallen, no matter how broken you feel, Jesus still saves, restores, and sets people free. Don’t quit before your miracle.
Thank you to everyone who has walked this journey with me….my family, my church family, my recovery family, my friends, and everyone who believed in me when I struggled to believe in myself.
Twenty-four years. One day at a time. All because of the amazing grace of God.

“Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine… to Him be glory.” Ephesians 3:20–21

It’s easy to learn the 8 Principles and 12 Steps…It’s harder to live them.

You can fill in every blank, quote every line, and still walk out unchanged.

Recovery isn’t about what you know.
It’s about what you practice.

Step 1 isn’t just something you admitted… it’s something you remember when pride creeps back in.
Step 4 isn’t just something you wrote… it’s something you continue daily.
Step 8 isn’t just a list… it’s courage in motion.
Step 12 isn’t a finish line… it’s a lifestyle.

James 1:22 (NLT) says,
“Don’t just listen to God’s word. You must do what it says.”

So here’s the question:
Are you working the steps… or are the steps working you?

This week, don’t just TALK recovery.
Walk it. Live it. Do it.

Let It Out
“Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have.
But do this with gentleness and respect.
”
1 PETER 3:15
One Sunday morning, our Sunday school teacher asked who would like to quote a favorite Bible verse. My hand
shot up immediately, and I said,
“Hebrews 8:12—God forgives my wickedness and remembers my sins no
more.”
I was new to the class, but I was so excited that God had chosen to forgive and forget my past that I couldn’t
contain myself. When the teacher called on me, I quickly replied,
“I just have to say it. I can’t hold it in!”
Sometime later, one of the men who had been in the class that Sunday told me he had made the following remark to the person sitting next to him: “Wow, he sounds pretty red up. But I bet that will be gone in a few years.” Then he said,
“But I can see I was wrong. You’re still red up!” And now, more than twenty- five years later, I’m red up even more because I now know God has not only rescued me from my old destructive path, but he has also been faithful throughout the years to keep me on the right path, one that leads to hope and
joy. I can’t possibly keep it to myself.
No matter how good or bad we are, we are never good enough. God has to rescue every one of us. We
should never keep that to ourselves.

PRAYER
Father, thank you for rescuing me and giving me a new start. I will be grateful for as long as I live and also for
eternity. In Jesus’ name, Amen
