Join Tommy and Maria Wilson as they share a raw, hopeful conversation about childhood trauma, years of addiction and crime, and the life-changing moment of salvation that set them on a path to recovery and service. They discuss Tommy’s past with gambling, cocaine, meth and insurance scams, Maria’s role in bringing him to church, and the difficult losses their family endured.
The episode covers the founding of Living Free Ministries and the Freedom Center, partnerships with Home of Grace, community outreach like their massive Christmas meals, and the couple’s approach to recovery—honest about failures, focused on Christ, and committed to loving people where they are.
Listeners can expect stories of grief and resilience, practical insights for families affected by addiction, and a clear message of hope: while many are looked at, few are truly seen—and in Christ we are loved and can be restored.
