Former addict: From Heroin to Jesus. Whitney Harris Part 2 of 3 with Anh Le

The Real Life Radio Show with Evangelist Anh Le

Hi This is Evangelist Anh Le, welcome to the
Real Life Radio Show, and we are going to talk to Real People, who had
real problems, but found answers in a Real God. Lately, we have been talking
about
what percentage of Christian kids leave their parents faith, and change
to becoming either an atheist, or a person of a different religion.
According to a study done interviewing Harvard College students,
apparently only 42% stayed with the same denominational Christian faith
as their parents had. But out of that, 25% had become atheist, 14
percent felt the need to switch to a different religion, and 19% shifted
to more liberal religions such as Unitarianism. Well, the numbers
aren't as high as many in the world would tell you, but there is a good
amount that becomes atheistic, which is 25%. But what happens to them
as they get older? Do they all fall apart? Well, no. However, in our last show, Whitney Harris who is a former drug addict, was telling us how she was raised in a very good Baptist home, but couldn't stand all the rules and how Christianity didn't seem cool to her as she was growing up. So she eventually left her faith and became cool, started living a life of smoking weed, cigarettes, and doing drugs, and she told us how she thought she was living on top of the world, until the drug addiction really set in and started dragging her through life. Let's hear her story. Whitney, welcome back to the show Whitney.
