Ep 48 | From Addict to Pastor | Robby Gallaty

from Strange Encounters with Rick Burgess · host Blaze Podcast Network

Robby Gallaty is an author and pastor at Long Hollow Baptist Church. Robby wasn’t always a pastor, though. For three years, Robby battled a drug addiction that ravaged his life. A $180-a-day heroin and cocaine addiction drove him to steal $15,000 from his parents. After living without gas, electricity, and water for months, losing eight of his friends to drug-related deaths, watching six friends get arrested, and completing two rehab treatments, Robby remembered the gospel that was shared with him by a friend in college and was radically saved. Today, Robby’s gospel conviction and evangelistic zeal drive him to passionately “make disciples who make disciples.” Sponsor: Gabi takes the pain out of shopping for insurance by giving you an apples-to-apples comparison of your current coverage with 40 of the top insurance providers like: Progressive, Nationwide and Travelers. · Just link your current insurance account and in about two minutes you’ll be able to see quotes for the exact same coverage you currently have.
