TUNE IN: APPLE PODCASTS | SPOTIFY | PANDORAAMAZON MUSIC


Today’s episode features a friend of a friend and she has a testimony that is nothing short of amazing. God has had a hand on this beautiful Kingdom daughter and He is about to be glorified in a big way through the sharing of what you’re about to hear. 

Candace Advent was born and raised a Jehovah’s Witness but she left religion for a relationship with Jesus. She’s a recovered alcoholic who has been sober for 7 1/2 years. She’s a wife and a mama to two little girls. She’s also a nail technician, plus she works a business from her home. Candace loves Jesus, her family and her work and she’s enjoying her life these days sober and happy. 

Candace is sharing it all with us today as she walks through what it was like to grow up as a Jehovah’s Witness and how her recovery from alcohol addiction led her to turning her life from religion to relationship to Jesus.

Her story is one of trials as she simultaneously experienced divorce, addiction and pregnancy, but through obedience and the love of the Good Father, she prevails to live a life today that beautifully glorifies God.

  • What it was like being raised as a Jehovah’s Witness
  • Mental health and addiction
  • How Candace found relationship with Jesus
  • What life looks like for Candace today
