From 27 Arrests to One Miracle: Hitting Rock Bottom Saved My Life
Welcome back to the Stand Up Dude Podcast! In this gripping episode, your hosts Tim Bisagno and Stewart White have a raw, real, and hope-filled conversation with Michael Molthan—formerly one of the nation’s top luxury home builders, now a passionate recovery advocate, faith-filled motivator, and host of the M2 The Rock show.
Men, if you’ve ever hit rock bottom, battled addiction, struggled with hidden pain, or felt like you’re trying to climb out of a pit you can’t escape—this is YOUR episode. Michael gets honest about his journey from childhood trauma and high-flying career success, to 27 arrests, homelessness, and ultimately, a prison cell where his life was radically changed by the grace of Jesus Christ.
If you’re a man who’s tired of quick fixes, religious clichés, or just going through the motions, we invite you to hear how redefining “rock bottom” led Michael—and can lead you—to the true foundation: relationship with Christ and becoming the man you’re made to be.
What You’ll Experience in This Episode: • Michael’s dramatic testimony: From family trauma, addiction, and 27 mug shots to radical rescue and restored purpose • Real talk on shame, brokenness, and the traps men fall into (even “successful” men) • How prison and a simple act of service kickstarted a journey to faith and freedom—even when surrounded by murderers and outcasts • Why forgiveness (for yourself and others) is the breakthrough you’re craving • Redefining “rock bottom”—Discovering God in your lowest moment, trading performance for freedom • Dealing with fatherlessness, identity issues, and breaking generational cycles • Why EVERY man is an addict—and how to finally get free from strongholds, not just cover them up • Powerful, practical steps for finding a mentor, becoming a spiritual leader, and taking back your home • An invitation to start (or restart) your walk with Jesus—honestly, humbly, and right where you are • How to join a brotherhood of men who are becoming sons, fathers, and leaders God’s way And so much more.
If you’re searching for answers, feel like you keep falling short, or just want to learn what it means to step up as a man—don’t miss this bold call to purpose and freedom.
