For years, Sarah Jacobs was lost to the streets, trapped in a brutal cycle of heroin addiction, arrests, and heartbreak. She spent her days chasing a high and her nights in jail cells or treatment centers—each time vowing it would be the last, and each time falling again. She lost everything: her freedom, her dignity, and the most devastating of all—custody of her three children.

But this is not a story of defeat. This is the story of what happens when one woman finds a sliver of grace in the darkest night of the soul.

In this gripping and deeply human episode, we follow Sarah’s journey from overdoses and prison walls to the pulpit of Beit T’Shuvah, a community where addiction, faith, and recovery collide. Today, Sarah is not only sober—she’s the congregation leader, helping others reclaim their lives from the same darkness that nearly swallowed her whole. She speaks with raw honesty about what it means to lose everything and then rebuild a life not just worth living, but worth sharing.

This episode will break your heart—and then piece it back together. Sarah Jacobs was dying. Now she gives life to others. This is her resurrection story.
