Interview: Heroin, HIV, and the Power of Sacrificial Love

from The REAL David Knight Show · host David Knight

In his new book Shooting Up: A Memoir of Love, Loss and Addiction, Jonathan Tepper recounts growing up in Madrid’s heroin epidemic as his missionary parents built a grassroots rehab network in one of Europe’s hardest-hit neighborhoods. Surrounded by addicts, crime, and a generation devastated by HIV, he watched lives restored through faith and discipline—while also burying friends and even his own brother after a tragic accident. This is a stark, deeply personal account of addiction, redemption, and what sacrificial love looks like in the middle of cultural collapse.
