​​In this powerful episode of One Broken Life, John Stroup sits down with Scott Bates to hear a raw and redemptive story of transformation. Once caught in a cycle of addiction, crime, and brokenness, Scott’s life seemed destined for destruction. But God had other plans.

From addict to ordained, Scott shares the raw truth about the darkest chapters of his life—and the moment God turned it all around. Through faith, accountability, and the support of a Christ-centered community, he went from being lost in addiction to walking in his calling as a reverend, with a renewed identity and purpose.

Whether you're battling your own struggles or searching for hope in someone else’s, this episode is a reminder that no one is too far gone for grace.
