Rock star Brian Welch shares about how he found God after years of drug addiction and mocking religion. During his lowest point, Brian started desperately praying to God for help.

For years, he used meth and other drugs to mask his inner pain. After visiting rehab centers, Brian even contemplated suicide. During this time, the rocker was also obsessed with money.
He always strived to find new ways to grow his wealth and eventually teamed up with a group of realtors for a real estate deal. These particular realtors were Christians and Brian knew there was something different about them.
