Incarceration and addiction taught our return guest, Juan Salazar, life-changing and eternal lessons. His path to redemption not only changed his life but also gave him a passion for helping others. This podcast episode shows the power of faith-based recovery, featuring Juan's heartfelt story of writing a letter that marked the turning point in his life.

He and Tony discuss how his commitment to personal growth led him to become a youth outreach minister and a positive influence for others. In our conversation, they talk about the impact of programs like Living Free and Simple Steps Recovery at Heritage Baptist Church on individual transformation and community leadership.

Juan's experiences as a peer mentor inspired him to assist others in reclaiming their lives with renewed purpose and determination. He and Tony address the challenges of counseling individuals in need of recovery versus those who support the ministry.
