Summary

SummaryI’m John Edwards, born and raised in Dublin, Ireland, the shy 13-year-old who first stole my mother’s valium and thought I’d found relief 🙏. That “cure” led me down roads of sniffing ether, LSD, speed, barbiturates—until one night on the streets of London I injected my first pills and my world exploded in darkness 💔. Homeless for two decades, I watched friends die, hospitals and straightjackets became home, and my heart grew colder than the alleys I slept in. Then in 1987, at a Christian meeting in Ireland, I cried out to God… and felt His love shatter my chains ✨. Teen Challenge set me free, and I returned to those same streets—this time with Jesus as my crutch, discipling addicts, walking hundreds of miles with a cross, and pioneering rehabs across the UK 🎗️. Today, at 65, I’ve witnessed miracles—cancer healed, a liver transplant, 60,000 miles of outreach—and I know: nothing compares to the love of Christ ❤️.
