At 35, Daniel from Kansas City was trapped in a cycle of depression, job instability and suicidal thoughts, losing his identity after his college sports days ended. His rescue came in a “godsend” moment when an agent from Ozark National Life Insurance (who happened to be a Heartland Recovery graduate) was visiting his father’s house and led him to the 12-month program. Daniel found true transformation when he grasped the reality of spiritual freedom. “Being risen in Christ and having Him live inside you frees you from the sin and the bondage,” Daniel shares, “walking in the freedom of that and knowing that there’s hope.”
Now viewing life through a Christ-centered lens, Daniel is heading home to his supportive family and a new church community, free from his past shame. He urges anyone currently drowning in their own dark thoughts to take a leap of faith. As Daniel puts it: “Give Jesus a chance. He is the truth, and He will free you if you give your heart to Him.”
