God Took Me to Las Vegas
My mission with the God Took Me to Las Vegas podcast is to save lives and allow the person to Reveal the Lifestyle Champion within them.There are many different types of recovery programs, they all are aimed at helping those battling substance use disorders to transition from being harmed to being clean and sober. Anyone who’s battling a compulsive or destructive behavior wants to be healthy and they desire to live a happy and productive life. Sadly, only 1 in 10 Americans with a substance use disorder receives treatment. Why?Because it’s not safe to come forward and admit your challenges. The stigma is fueling an American public health crisis and we need to “Crush the Stigma!”Substance use disorders are associated with discrimination and social disapproval – more than any medical condition. These same people are often isolated, outcast, and even imprisoned. Stigma isolates people, it discourages them from seeking help, and even leads some medical providers to resist delivering evidence-based treatment services.

Episode 53 – John Farrell’s Testimony
This week, the broadcast is an amazing testimony by John Farrell at the Quest180 meeting in Viera, Florida. John has been blessed to be sober for more than thirty years and shares in this testimony how he was desperate to hear guidance from God and shortly thereafter heard from God that “prayer is the answer”.
John is a strong advocate for 12-step programs and is a true leader, coming alongside others who are battling to get clean and sober and then remain that way. He touts his life as a demonstration of God’s forgiveness, His redemption, and His healing powers.
John recalls those moments where feelings of helplessness and a lack of self-worth dominated his thoughts as he was struggling in a college career. God touched his heart and then John re-surrendered his life to Him.
