In this episode of The Knock Podcast, hosts Bobby and Gerrad sit down with their second out-of-state guest, Darryl Brown, joining from California. Darryl shares how his faith foundation began with a powerful example in his grandfather—a longtime pastor whose greatest desire was that his family would know Jesus. But like many, Darryl had to move from inherited faith to a personal relationship with Christ, and his path took him through identity struggles, construction culture, and a painful descent into opioid addiction that grew from prescriptions into dependency.
Darryl opens up about multiple rehab attempts, the moment God met him in a desert facility during withdrawal, and how that encounter became an "unshakable faith" turning point—while also being honest about relapse after baptism and what it taught him about surrender, grace, and changed desires. Now walking in freedom with years of sobriety, Darryl's story is a reminder that God can turn the darkest detours into purpose, and that no one is too far gone to be pulled back under His wing.
If this story stirs something in you—pray on it.
If you're searching for more—lean in.
Because God is always knocking. The question is: will you answer?
