This week on Courageous Overcomers, Tonya dives into the vital role of faith in overcoming addiction, abuse, and trauma. In recent episodes, she has explored resilience and shared the powerful stories of overcomers—each of them bound by one common thread: faith.
Tonya introduces another brick-breaking tool in the healing journey: faith. She has often discussed emotional walls—how people build them for protection but end up keeping out the good while allowing the bad to remain. While courage and resilience help break down these walls, faith is the key that truly unlocks healing.
In this episode, Tonya shares her own journey—how she went from knowing nothing about God to experiencing a radical transformation that changed her life. From a painful past marked by addiction, loss, and trauma, she stepped into a faith that not only sustained her but set her free.
For those who feel lost, are struggling to heal, or are hesitant to surrender their lives to God, Tonya offers a heartfelt message: Today is the day. Having tried everything the world offers, she knows firsthand that nothing compares to the peace and purpose found in Jesus.
And for those already walking with the Lord, Tonya encourages them to keep loving others and continue inviting people in. A single act of kindness—whether an invitation to church or even something as simple as a plate of cookies—can change someone’s life forever.
💡 Takeaways from this episode:
✔️ Faith is essential to healing—without it, people remain stuck.
✔️ Community plays a crucial role in spiritual growth—small acts of kindness make a big impact.
✔️ If faith has become stagnant, it’s time to dive back in.
