From Vodka to ICU: Nick’s Fight to Be Reborn

In this episode, Nick shares how a divorce and a slow build of casual drinking spiraled into full blown addiction.

What began as a once a month social drink turned into needing alcohol just to function, to have fun, to escape, or feel anything at all. Before he knew it, twenty ounces of hard liquor a day was normal.

He ignored the scares. He ignored the anxiety. He ignored the warnings. Until one day his body finally gave out. Nick went into multiple seizures, was rushed into an ambulance, and woke up in the hospital with no memory of how he even got there.

His organs were shutting down. His life was hanging by a thread.

But this episode is not just about brokenness. It is about what it takes to rebuild a soul.

From the woman who believed there was still good in him, to the daily discipline of scripture study, to the moment he finally surrendered his vice to God and never looked back.

Nick shares the redemption, the miracles, and the truth that addiction does not have to be a life sentence.

This is not just a story of rock bottom. It is a story of rebirth, hope, and the power to walk away from darkness forever.

Topics covered:- The slow slide into alcoholism- The moment his body began shutting down- The seizures that woke him up to reality- How shame and ego blind us to how bad things really are- The miracle of a changed heart through Christ- The role of love and consistency in recovery- Turning weakness into strength and purpose'

- You are not trapped.
- You are not too far gone.
- And with God, there is always a way back.
