Finding Peace and Freedom From Addictions — with Cristina Baker

Are you struggling to break free from the grip of an addiction? Are you searching for hope and healing, but don’t know where to start? Christie Myers and Christina Baker chat about the transformative power of prayer and their personal journeys of healing. They share the importance of vulnerability and community, and the divine encounters they had that led to freedom and change. Christina shares her story of overcoming a 10-year battle with drug addiction, finding hope through faith, and the role of prayer in her healing journey. We pray that this conversation leaves you with the truth that God’s endless love is available to everyone, regardless of your past, and there is hope for your healing through the power of Christ.

Cristina’s passion is to minister the Gospel and teach people about the power of prayer that is found in a relationship with Jesus. She’s an author, speaker, and the author of A Minute of Hope. After a 10-year battle with drug addiction, Cristina had a radical encounter with the love and power of God and immediately answered the call on her life to minister the Gospel. Cristina and her husband are founders of Power of Hope Ministries, and they currently live in Nashville, Tennessee, with their teenage son and three dogs.
