The Gift of Sharing Stories Every Sunday night, I am humbled by the opportunity to listen to people's experiences—each one a testament to the grace of God. As I prepared for this episode, I was reminded of my own struggles, notably my thirty-year battle with an eating disorder, which inspired me to foster conversations that help others break free from their shackles. In sharing our stories, we inspire hope and healing, often in ways we may never fully comprehend.  

Jason Sache 

A Life Transformed Jason Sachse lives in Scottsbluff, Nebraska, where he and his wife manage a ranch. To understand his resilience, we must first dive into his past—a journey filled with heartache, struggle, and ultimately, redemption. 

Growing up in a Christian family, Jason experienced a rocky road in his youth, marked by familial upheaval and the challenges of dyslexia. His teenage years brought about significant changes, pushing him towards rodeo and, regrettably, addiction. 

At one point, Jason's life spiraled into a deep struggle with methamphetamine that lasted for a decade. The grip of addiction can often obscure the brilliance of hope, but through his story, we see that even the most profound darkness can give way to the light.  

The Healing Encounter 

Transitioning from addiction to recovery isn't a linear path; it's often messy and laden with setbacks. Jason’s pivotal moment came unexpectedly while sitting in his pickup. After years of battling his demons, he made the courageous choice to reach out to God. His sincere prayer for help marked the turning point. Just like that—a powerful moment of clarity—he found the strength to walk away from addiction and into a new life. 

Jason’s acknowledgment that he walked away from 10 years of addiction without withdrawals speaks volumes about the transformative power of God and divine intervention. "If you want something badly enough… you will do whatever it takes," he shares, underscoring the importance of personal choice along with spiritual guidance. 


Surrounding Yourself with Goodness 

In the wake of his recovery, Jason highlights the significant role of community and faith. He and his wife now actively participate in their church, surrounded by supportive friends who share their values. He emphasizes the importance of choosing positive influences: “If you surround yourself with good people, the outcome is going to be good too.” This message resonates with anyone who has sought to break free from their past or trying circumstances.  


A Life of Purpose 

In sharing his testimony, Jason speaks candidly about the reality that many people, lost in their struggles, might not yet see a way out. He reassures listeners that they can choose to step into the light, one small decision at a time. It’s an invitation to let Jesus into their lives, to experience healing and restoration. The empowerment of wanting to move forward is echoed throughout his story. “What God has done for me is nothing short of miraculous,” Jason proclaims with conviction. Armed with scriptural references from John 16:33, Psalms 112:8, and Philippians 4:13, he anchors his journey in faith—an unwavering reminder that healing is possible, freedom is attainable, and purpose awaits those who seek it.  



 Hope is a Choice 

Jason’s journey is a powerful example of how faith can function as a lifeline, steering us through tumultuous waters towards a new beginning. His life reflects the beauty of transformation that can occur when we open ourselves to divine intervention and choose to seek support from a community grounded in faith. In a world where many feel lost or shackled by their struggles, Jason's story serves as a resounding reminder that hope is always within reach. As we close this conversation, I encourage everyone listening to reach out, share your story, and embrace the journey that God has laid before you. Remember, it just takes one step to begin reclaiming your hope and finding your purpose.
