When Lisa* was a little girl, Thanksgiving meant ordering fast food while family members got drunk and fought. Her traumatic childhood led her to decades of dysfunction, drug abuse, and jail time. During those years of chaos, Lisa had five children.
When Lisa hit rock bottom in 2019, she checked into a Christ-centered residential recovery center in Charlotte, North Carolina. By the grace of God, Thanksgiving began to look a lot different for Lisa and her children. Listen to the story of God’s faithfulness in her life on this episode of GPS.
