“Recovery is a lifelong journey, and no one should have to walk it alone,” said Meads. “Through this devotional, I desire to show readers struggling with addiction that they will find strength, encouragement, and the support needed to keep moving forward.”

Addiction is argued to be a debilitating struggle that affects millions of people worldwide. In some cases, individuals who struggle with addiction may turn to faith for strength and guidance, but finding the right resources may be challenging. Hoping to offer support, author Wayne Meads Jr. is excited to release his new book, “180 Degrees in 180 Days.”

Meads offers a daily devotional that encourages readers to discover freedom from active addiction or merely help redefine what they may need to live a fulfilling life. The timeline in the book attempts to coincide with the readers’ physical and mental pain and emotional turmoil from the first days of recovery until the 180th day. Additionally, it touches on the pain and shame one may feel at the beginning of treatment and progresses to the success of a new beginning.

“Addiction is a complex issue, as it can be easy to feel alone and overwhelmed in the struggle,” said Meads. “As someone who has battled it myself, I wanted to create a resource that would help others find hope and healing through faith.”

Meads hopes by committing 15 minutes a day to read and incorporate his suggestion, the reader’s recovery may be built on solid ground that emphasizes the importance of a relationship with God along with the 12-step program.

“Recovery is a lifelong journey, and no one should have to walk it alone,” said Meads. “Through this devotional, I desire to show readers struggling with addiction that they will find strength, encouragement, and the support needed to keep moving forward. God has a plan and a purpose for everyone’s life outside of addiction that they could never imagine.”
