In this powerful conversation, Mark sits down with Ryan Reichert — retired Army lieutenant colonel, author, and founder of Our Protector LLC — to unpack a story of addiction, surrender, and supernatural transformation.
Ryan spent decades grinding through life on his own strength: deployments, injuries, prescription drug abuse, alcoholism, and the collapse of a 25‑year relationship. But everything changed when he finally surrendered to God.
He shares how the Holy Spirit rebuilt his life from the ground up, why discipline is a form of discipleship, and how men can develop spiritual and mental habits that keep them from breaking completely.
If you’ve ever felt stuck, ashamed, or unsure how to move forward, this episode will remind you that God still writes new stories — even from the ashes of old ones.
