Jordan from Hannibal, Missouri, found himself drawn into a destructive lifestyle through the guys he started working with, as a young man he was completely unaware of how deeply it would impact the rest of his life. “It was a slow beginning for me,” he shares. “I didn’t just fall into it—I slowly began to do things I normally wouldn’t do, and over time, it became who I was.” By 2008, Jordan faced the consequences of his actions, serving four years in prison for crimes rooted in his drug addiction. Rather than change his life continued to spiral further into chaos, “I didn’t realize I was under demonic influence,” he admits. “My life was in bondage, and I didn’t know that’s what was going on.”
Jordan eventually found his way to the Heartland Recovery Program, where he learned accountability and began to rebuild his life through faith. He committed himself to Christ in 2022, embracing a transformative path. “The biggest change was learning to trust in God and surrender my ways. I’ve found restoration in my relationships and discovered that addiction wasn’t my problem—sin was.”
