I’m an alcoholic with long-term sobriety, but my journey has been anything but easy. While I was never behind bars, I did end up in the hospital—twice—spending a total of nine weeks there, followed by four months of physical therapy. But the deepest wounds weren’t physical. My addiction placed a burden on my family and friends that was far too heavy—straining relationships, breaking trust, and leaving pain in its wake. I was angry at the world and exhausted from the lies I kept telling—especially the ones I told myself. I didn’t recognize the person I had become, and I felt completely lost.  It was in that place of exhaustion and brokenness that I finally stopped running—from the truth, from myself, and from God. When I surrendered, I discovered that the healing I was desperate for had been waiting for me all along in His grace. That discovery lit a fire in me to share hope with others walking the same difficult road, and that’s why Intentional Servant was born—to offer encouragement, community, and faith-based support to anyone seeking freedom and a new beginning.

By God’s grace, I found my way to recovery. Sobriety has given me the chance to rebuild relationships, reclaim my purpose, and walk in faith. Today, I am a husband, father, stepdad, and friend, striving to live with intention and serve others with compassion. I am also pursuing a Master of Divinity, equipping myself to help others find hope, healing, and a deeper connection with God. The Intentional Servant is my way of giving back—sharing what I’ve learned, offering encouragement, and reminding others that no matter how far they’ve fallen, redemption is always within reach.

 

If you’re struggling, know this: you’re not alone, and your story isn’t over.
