When addiction invades a family, it doesn’t just break the addicted—it wounds everyone who loves them. In this powerful episode, author Kathryn Mae Inman shares the heart-wrenching journey of walking beside her son through six failed rehab attempts, relentless relapses, and the dark grip of addiction. But this is not just a story of suffering—it’s a story of rescue.

Through the depths of despair, Kathryn found an unshakable hope, and her son found salvation in the most unexpected way—not through programs or punishment, but through the redemptive love of Christ. Today, her son is a husband, father, and man of faith—a testimony to the life-changing power of grace.

If you’re a parent, a sibling, or a friend battling beside someone in addiction, this episode offers more than comfort—it offers hope.

Inspired by Kathryn’s book Counting Spoons, this is an unforgettable conversation about pain, perseverance, and the God who never stops pursuing.
