This week, Megan Deal sits down with Lyle and Alesia to share a story that’s as real as it gets... one of addiction, heartbreak, second chances, and the kind of hope that changes everything. They talk honestly about losing their kids, hitting rock bottom, and stepping into a faith-based program that gave them the tools (and the grace) to rebuild their family. You’ll hear about the hard lessons, the little victories that meant everything, and how faith and community carried them through. Their journey proves that no matter how broken life feels, redemption is possible.
