S3:E5 | We’re excited to be sitting down today with Phillip Wagner and Jonathan Lopez, who are both members here at GBFPC that have helped put together a ministry and program called Be Free.

Be Free is a transformative 15-session program designed to help individuals overcome their addictions. It can be any form of addiction, or life controlling behavior. Founded by clinical psychologist and apostolic woman, Beth Baus, the program fosters a unique sense of community and support. Unlike traditional recovery groups, it prioritizes building deep connections among members, creating a safe space for individuals to share their struggles and triumphs. The approach is holistic, incorporating not only therapeutic sessions but also community engagement through donation drives and public events. By empowering members with responsibilities and involving them in decision-making, it cultivates a sense of ownership and purpose.

But through it all, I'm excited to share not only my journey, but also the incredible miracle that God performed during my treatment.

Remember, no matter what difficulties we face, God is always with us, and there's a reason for everything. Let's find that reason and grow stronger through it!
