Episode 91: Joe Wilson's Story

Released October 6, 2021 by THE COMEBACK : from addiction to redemption

 

In this episode, you’ll meet Joe Wilson. Joe has an unbelievable story for us. Joe is an impactful Pastor, leader, and church planter. He has spent many years on the frontlines in overseas ministry, and has started approximately 5,000 churches! The Lord has used Joe in some incredible ways; however, Joe’s story didn’t exactly start the same way.

Joe grew up in an average family, but there was an absence of a relationship with his father. That led Joe to seek validation from friends and other older guys. He would get cigarettes from his older brother so that he would not tell his parents, and not long after that, his friend introduced him to marijuana. The drug use would continue to increase as he joined the Navy, and it wouldn’t stop until after he was completely homeless. He got connected with a life-giving community of people who would hold him accountable, which was when things started to change for him. He was seeking God during this time, and he finally gave his life to Jesus at a revival crusade. The Lord has taken him on some amazing adventures throughout the years, and Joe has never looked back except to see all that God has rescued him from!
