“If you would have told me 10 years ago when my dad went into his seventh rehab facility that I would be standing in front of over 100 people sharing our family’s story of his drug addiction, I would not have believed you in a million years. I was still in a place of being so hurt and wanted to hide it all. The transformation of becoming open with this story is a miracle in itself and shows the beauty of forgiveness and what God can do! Because of my dad’s strength and determination to get sober and stay sober, and because of the healing power of Jesus Christ, my dad got sober September 2009! So proud of you, Dad!!!!

He has moved mountains in 10 years. He now works for a treatment facility JourneyPure and also founded Athletes in Recovery. He has helped thousands of people find sobriety, hope and healing. I am so proud of my parents for their endurance. Light can intercept darkness. I thank God every day for sparing my dad’s life and allowing him to impact so many with his story. His test is now his testimony! Families CAN be healed and restored. We are living proof.” - Emily Mock, daughter of Randy and Lydia Grimes
