Summary

SummaryIโ€™m Eddie Anders, and for years I lived a double lifeโ€”leading worship for thousands ๐ŸŽต while secretly spiraling into self-destructive depression ๐Ÿ˜ข. At fifty, after losing everything in a partnership betrayal in Tennessee, I flew to Minneapolis on July 6, 2006, determined to end it all ๐Ÿ’Š. I checked into a hotel under a fake name, swallowed over 200 Ambien, and woke up only when police burst in ๐Ÿšจ. Lying in that hospital bed, chained on suicide watch, I felt utter shame and despair. But then, in a moment of divine grace, I flipped channels and heard TD Jakes declare, โ€œThe spirit of suicide is on you, and if God hadnโ€™t rescued youโ€ฆโ€ ๐Ÿ™. In tears, I realized God hadnโ€™t just saved my lifeโ€”He was reinventing it as a new creation ๐Ÿ˜‡. Now, ten years later, I share this story to give hope: even on your worst day, God loves you and can bring you back โค๏ธ.

The remarkable true story of how a lifetime in music and ministry with world-renown music groups and on staff at prominent churches, culminated at age fifty in a powerfully lethal attempt on his own life. By every account of the doctors involved, Eddie Anders’ attempt should have proven fatal many times over. Only Divine intervention would secure rescue, healing and a transformed life.
