I’ve been there. Empty. Lost. Broken.

Thankfully, I found the right answer.

I found HIM.

Hi, I’m Rachel.

I had a massive stroke, (I was 27 yrs. old), & was a functioning alcoholic. I survived both diseases but almost lost everything; nearly my marriage & family. I’m standing here because Christ saved me from my addiction & my past. I fell so many times but Jesus was there, even when I was in my darkest place. If you need help, I know WHO can rescue you from your pain. Read on to hear more.

Good Samaritan helped me break my alcohol addiction & replaced it with the love of Christ. If you or a loved one struggles with any addiction, click here to get help. 

The world is a broken place filled with broken lives. I pray that my testimony would bring people to Christ, who loves you deeply. If that’s you in those dark places, there is hope - seek Him & He will answer. Be the light that God wants to bring forth within you. It never is easy, but the peace & the salvation is worth everything.

I miraculously survived a major stroke, seizures & my alcohol addiction. Now, I’m ready to talk about everything with you all. Check out my blog posts on joy, even though life is difficult.

Meet Katherine.

She was working, married & a mother when she had a massive stroke. Her life was changed instantly. She’s disabled but her story is truly powerful. She has a remarkable perspective on how awful things happen, but she never wavered in her faith in Jesus. She is my hero. Now, she runs a Christian nonprofit, Hope Heals. She does speaking events, author of multiple books & the founder of the Hope Heals Camp. To hear her story & info about her program, visit Hope Heals today.

Oh, give me back my joy again; you have broken me— now let me rejoice. Don’t keep looking at my sins. Remove the stain of my guilt. Create in me a clean heart, O God. Renew a loyal spirit within me. - Psalms 51:8-10
