My guest for this podcast episode is Ben Bethel. Ben started life much the same as many of us. He continued with hopes and dreams like any of us. He was a part of many of the same life activities. But because of choices he made, his life took a detour and he began to be caught up in addictive substances and associated behaviors. As this detour continued and his hopes were challenged, he did not give up hope. Fortunately, Ben rediscovered the lessons he learned from his youth of true and lasting hope being found in our Lord.
He has now been clean from drugs almost three years. He is part of the Home of Recovery and Restoration located in Winnsboro, Texas. He not only successfully graduated from the 9-month program but is now part of the staff. Ben learned what many of us have discovered. We know that when we’ve been through challenges to our hope, we feel an intense desire to help others facing similar challenges.
I invite you to listen to this compelling story of rediscovering and sustaining hope.
If you know someone in a similar situation, please share this podcast with them so they too can rediscover hope.

I encourage you to purchase a copy of the book, “Journey to Hope”. In it I explore hope from a variety of perspectives. I also look at examples from scripture of men and women that journeyed from hopeless to hopeful through their interaction with our Lord. You can obtain a copy by going to https://bibletalk.tv/books/journey-to-hope. All proceeds from this book go to support Bibletalk.TV.
