Robby was a homeless drug user after becoming addicted to opiates prescribed for a painful back injury. He said, ‘Opiates were the biggest lie I have ever been associated with. Only by the grace of God am I still breathing today. I should have died more than once. Addiction landed me homeless at the Salvation Army.’ Mia, his wife, was an alcoholic before they met. She had grown up in the church but lost her way and sought help to stop her dependence. Both of their lives dramatically changed when they found Jesus. Robby’s conversion set him on an incredible path away from homelessness and into God’s plan for his life. Now he and a colleague are sharing the Gospel at their Revelations Café that nourishes people physically and helps them grow spiritually so that they live a full and robust spiritual and physical life.
