I did not know my purpose.  My life and thinking were centered around getting and using drugs by any means possible.  All I knew was sin; my life was out of control and in chaos.  Satan was working within me.  I hurt and stole from many people including my loved ones. The circumstances which led me to Life Challenge included multiple car accidents, near death experiences, and overdoses.  My Mom recommended this program after many failed 30-day program attempts.

Through answered prayers, reading the Bible, and Life Challenge classes, I have come to know Jesus.  I found a purpose and meaning in life, reconstructed broken relationships with family and learned how to be a man of Christian integrity.  I developed a relationship with Jesus Christ and now live in peace.  I walk in faith and not by a high; I was freed and forgiven from my sins.

My favorite scripture is 2 Corinthians 5:17 “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation.  The old has passed away; behold, the new has come…”
