Author Description

Life transformation is a messy, beautiful process. For almost two decades, a few of the men in the Spiritual Recovery Program at Helping Up Mission have gathered for a monthly poetry night. The poems that emerge from these meetings bear witness to the daily struggle of change that these men are living out. The struggles of early sobriety, the aftermath of relapse, and the joy of a new way of life are revealed in these pages. Whether you're in recovery yourself, or have a loved one who is struggling, you will come away enlightened and encouraged.
