From Addiction and Affairs to Hope and Joy with Tom Lyman

from Fathering Our Future · host Anthony Vandagriff

It almost feels cliche today when someone tells you, “There’s always hope.” Ironically, this line typically follows your explanation about how hopeless your current situation is. Sometimes it comes across as a cheap way out of a conversation. Whether you’ve thought of it as cliche or cheap, the truth remains, “There’s always hope.”   I’m joined today by Tom Lyman. Tom was addicted to drugs, alcohol, pornography, and cheated on his wife. Today, Tom is free from all addictions, happily married, and committed to helping others heal by being a beacon of joy and hope.   If you’ve ever questioned if there’s still hope, this episode is for you.   Connect with Tom: Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/share/1Bg2FFTcuH/?mibextid=wwXIfr Email - [email protected] Phone - (206) 730-1764   Book recommendation - Atomic Habits by James Clear (https://amzn.to/4iYJFI4)   —   Get your FREE 7-day devotional download: https://fatheringourfuture.com/2025/03/22/free-7-day-devotional/   Get your copy of the new devotional for dads, Following Our Father: https://shop.ingramspark.com/b/084?params=VA6KP8OJ9Nh6EJM8xkhLDg1exkXKTtM9kswBjBoKxmD (Amazon options: https://amzn.to/427aK4L)   Get your free gift, a copy of Cut The Crap (E-book): https://fatheringourfuture.com/2024/08/04/free-download-for-new-dads/   MERCH: https://fatheringourfuture.printify.me/products   Become a financial partner with Fathering Our Future and make a direct impact on dads: https://fatheringourfuture.com/support/
