Have you ever found yourself trapped or stuck in patterns you no longer desire? Maybe you’ve been hurt or wounded in the past and you’ve turned to anything to numb or anesthetize that pain, and now that very thing you looked to for instant relief is now your greatest source of destruction. Well there is good news my friends, recovery is for everyone and recovery is possible for you. Our Built Different Guest today is the Pastor of Temple City Church in Selma, NC as well as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), John Eklund. In this episode, John shares his powerful testimony involving brokenness, addiction, and suicidal ideation, yet in his darkest moment God showed up and provided a spark for his recovery journey. He has since then written a book and founded an exceptional program called Recovery Alive - Known for Resurrecting Hope through the power, people, and process of the 12 steps. John’s passion rests in helping others find the hope they feel has been lost and the freedom they never knew was possible. Listen to this episode, and be prepared to start your Recovery Journey today!
