Journey Through The Message 15 - A Killer Conversion!

Set Free 24-7

Sharing inspiring stories of adversity and the journey to freedom! My name is Robert and for years, I struggled with addictions from crack to methamphetamine and everything in between. In 2010, I was finally arrested and after piling up 53 B/C level felonies, I was sentenced to 3-10 years in prison in Nevada. And then God changed everything. But my story is just one of many and I am on a mission to share real stories from real people who have made it through some tough times and give others going through it the beautiful gift of HOPE! Get inspired and encouraged as we celebrate some highs, cry through some lows, and learn to live one day at a time. I’m not pushy or preachy, I’m just glad you are here!
