Summary

Daniel L. Trotter is the author of A Different Kind Of Strong: Addiction & Adversity Leads To A 30-Day Fast & A Christ-Centered Life. In the episode we talk about Daniel's years of addiction to alcohol, hard drugs and pornography, his depression and impulses to end his life, his intense physical pains, and ultimately his quest to get strong and get his life back on track. We discuss how this all culminated in a 30 day fast to truly learn the Lord's plan for him. Daniel has shared these experiences in a book. He has also released an original album by the same title. Daniel is a remarkable man with a great story of faith and redemption. Learn more at www.danielltrotter.com
