Kris started using drugs at a young age, thinking it was just what the “cool kids” did. What started as experimentation quickly turned into addiction, leading him into a cycle of jail, probation, and parole. Eventually, he lost everything—his home, his family, and nearly his future. “I was tired of my life and ready to give up,” Kris said. “So I turned to God and tried something new.”
That decision changed everything. At Heartland Recovery, he found hope and a fresh start. The biggest turning point came the day before his 43rd birthday when he was baptized and fully surrendered his life to Christ. “Once I made that announcement, everything in my life started turning towards the better,” he shared. Now, with restored family relationships and a new purpose, Kris is attending Bible college and trusting God for the future.
