Sherry Hoppen – Sober Cycle

God‘s Story Podcast

‘Sherry Hoppen, active church attendee, devoted wife and mother, and ministry worker, unveils the raw and unvarnished truth of her decade long battle with alcoholism – a secret that consumed her life, faith, and family. In a moment of desperation, she embarked on a thousand mile bike hike from Michigan to Texas, a grueling challenge that she hoped would mark the start of her journey toward sobriety. And it did – but it was only just beginning’.

Brent talks with Sherry about her new Redemption Press book ‘Sober Cycle: Pedalling Through Recovery One Day at a Time’.

Sherry has worked in various areas of a pregnancy care ministry for over 10 years. She launched She Surrenders in 2016, a ministry designed to encourage freedom from addiction with biblical truths, a deepening relationship with the Lord and the fellowship found in a healing community.
