Addiction destroyed my life, but God restored it. Andrew Chalmers speaks with Anh Le

In today's testimony we will be talking about how addictions to drugs will make you so desperate, you will become like a ravaged animal in order to get that next fix. In our last show, Andrew Chalmers shared her horrific story of how something as innocent as prescription painkillers lead to a path of always seeking his next high. He went from those painkillers, to becoming a heroine addict. He became so addicted to heroine, that even though he almost died from an overdose, after he went to the hospital, he told us of literally getting his next high right after he got back from the hospital. He became like an animal, where his family had to cut him off, but one day, his father came to him and reached out to him and found him. He told us of the story how he was so living for the heroine, that he threatened to kill his own father, if his father would try to stop him. His father had the grace to not stop him, and just sat there and watched his own son shoot up. today, Andrew is going to share what happened next with his father.

He pursued pleasure over all. Mickyle James Eshelman speaks with Anh Le

In today's testimony we are going to talk about the meaning of life, and provide evidence for the answer to one question, is the pursuit of pleasure the ultimate meaning of life? A lot of people would say so. That the point of life is to work hard, seek fun things to gain pleasure. Seems common sense right? According to neuroscientists, the human mind is wired to seek rewards for evolutionary purposes, and things that signal to the brain as pleasurable is how the human mind is made for the survival of mankind. Now, yes, we all seek pleasure to some sort of degree, and that is normal, but what happens when that reward system in the brain gets locked onto the wrong thing? Today, we will have Mickyle James Eshelman on our show who just wanted to live a happy life, and then in his pursuit of that, somehow fell into heroine addiction, and his sole purpose in life was to do anything to get that next high. But today, he has been set free from this addiction, and discovered the true meaning to his life. Mickyle, welcome to the show.

That one day forever changed his life, and we are going to talk about how one decision caused his life to spiral down into a life full of consequences and difficulty with Methamphetamines and cocaine.. But Jesus pulled him out of the pit, and saved his destiny. Jed, welcome to the show.
