176 - Sobriety, Serving, & Surrender: Mark Hooper's 19-Year Recovery Story
Follow Mark Hooper on Facebook HERE.
Help support Mark's Mission Trip to Alaska HERE.
Recovery isn’t just for those struggling with drugs or alcohol—it’s for anyone facing life’s deep wounds: trauma, codependency, anger, food, or pills. In this heartfelt episode, we welcome Mark Hooper, a man who’s walked through it all and is now celebrating 20 years of sobriety. Mark opens up about his early life, his battles with relapse, and the personal transformation that followed.
From brokenness to purpose, Mark shares how recovery gave him tools not just to survive—but to serve. Today, he’s involved in prison ministry, global missions, and living each day as the mission. This is a story of faith, friendship, and the kind of healing that doesn't always come with a storybook ending—but reveals a greater plan at work.
Whether you’re in recovery or just navigating life’s hard places, this conversation will inspire and challenge you
Remember we EXIST for more, we're here to OFFER more, don't ever GIVE UP, every single one of us are Made4More.
