About this episode
Stephen McWhirter shares his journey from deep addiction to a life of faith and worship.
Transformed from Deep Addiction to Deep Faith: Stephen McWhirter After living in the desperate darkness of drug addiction, Stephen McWhirter 's life got turned around in ways no one — least of all him — saw coming. Today, he's an award-winning Christian music artist whose best-known song has been seen and heard by millions of people. How did the miraculous change happen? God grabbed him out of his addiction and healed him of it, turning him into someone who truly knows and loves Jesus, leads people in worship all over the world and has a happy, healthy family. And if God could do it for him, he says, he can do a similarly radical work in your life, too.
