The addict who became an attorney

Josh Horton’s story is one of the most powerful addiction and redemption testimonies you’ll hear. After losing his father in a tragic accident at only eight weeks old, Josh grew up surrounded by alcohol, trauma, and broken family dynamics. By age 13 he was drinking, by 15 he was being arrested, and eventually he accumulated nearly 30 arrests, jail time, and a life spiraling toward death.But this story doesn’t end there. Through recovery, faith, and a slow return to God, Josh rebuilt his life — eventually earning a law degree and becoming an attorney dedicated to helping others escape addiction and broken systems.
