Listen "21. From Despair to Deliverance | David Lerum"
Episode Synopsis
David Lerum, a man deeply wounded by a broken childhood and the hypocrisy of his religious upbringing, spiraled into a life of addiction, fueled by trauma and a desperate search for meaning. His struggles with drugs, particularly methamphetamine, led to self-destruction, the loss of his family, and homelessness. At his lowest point, facing despair and contemplating suicide, David cried out to God. This desperate plea for help ushered in a profound transformation. He found solace in faith, discovered his identity in Christ, and experienced the transformative power of God's grace. Through dedicated recovery programs and the support of a loving community, David overcame his addiction, rebuilt his relationships, and found purpose in helping others find freedom in Christ. His story is a powerful testament to the enduring power of faith and the hope of redemption even in the face of seemingly insurmountable challenges.
