Strong Dads Doing Real Life - Fred Venis - Fresh Start after a Wreckless Beginning - Episode 218
Fred Venis, owner of Quality Auto Mart, tells his story about his ultimate surrender to Christ. He started out of high school as a very self-confident young man. He knew what he wanted and nothing was going to stand in his way.
Like so many of us as young men, we were slow to listen and fast to talk about all the things we thought we were good at. Fred was no different. He was mechanically gifted and had the work ethic to prove to himself and others that he was very capable.
Admittedly, Fred was not much for listening to the wisdom of the men that came before him. He finally came to a point of having too much money and too much arrogance but not enough humility to ask for help. After a medical situation introduced him to painkillers, he became addicted to them.
The addiction took over and before he realized it he was living each day to get his next fix. He lied to himself about having everything under control, but it slowly came back to bite him. He was busted for selling drugs in order to feed his own drug habit. With that, Fred was arrested and served time in prison.
Fred had the sense to realize that this was not the kind of life he wanted to live. He relocated his family to south east Indiana and began a new pathway. This pathway was approached in a completely different manner than his first pathway. This time he came under the mentorship of a God-Fearing man that owned Quality Auto Mart, Mark Roepke. Mark saw the potential in Fred and began to pull him under his wing.
Over the years, Mark and Fred grew a trusting relationship that opened the opportunity for Mark to transfer the business into the hands of Fred. Now a days, Fred is humbled and grateful for the paths he has walked. He has learned to appreciate what he has and the value of building wisdom through God's teachers.
