IMAGINE. . . a drug habit so bad that "every penny we could steal, hustle or con someone out of went to the dope man," recalls Kevin. "Our drug habit is what put us on the streets" where we lived in cardboard boxes and rummaged through dumpsters for food, Kevin added.
Through a chance breakfast encounter at a Lutheran church which fed the homeless, Kevin and Rachel Dowling started helping with cleanup while they were still high.
Through the church, there was "a lady, Pat who invited us, two strangers into her home," said Rachel. "She kept telling me, 'Kevin, God loves you and will always love you,' and asked me If I wanted to give my life to the Lord," said Kevin.
Weeping, Kevin added, "That was the greatest thing I ever did, and two days later, Rachel gave her life to the Lord."
Through God's direction, the Dowling's landed in a drug rehab center for couples, and stumbled on Andrew Wommack's teaching about God's love for them. "God used Andrew Wommack to teach us the truth" said Rachel, which led the couple to Charis Bible College and the launch of their food ministry.
As ex junkies, sitting under the teaching changed our lives, Kevin recalled. "The most amazing thing God has put in our lives is our finances. We have never been in debt, have always paid our bills on time, and God always supplied" he added.
Now the Dowling's passion is to "love people the way God loved us," said Rachel. "We want people to feel loved and we treat them like kings and queens," added Kevin, "and we will use all our resources to help them all we can."

More good news is Kevin was promoted to Assistant Pastor for the Black Sheep Harley Davidson's for Christ Ministry.

God's plan is always "to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future" (Jeremiah 29: 11-14 NIV) regardless of your age, circumstances or background.
Better yet, God is always crazy about you, "takes delight in you and rejoices over you with singing!" Zephaniah 3:17 (NIV). Each time I read that scripture I imagine myself at God's rejoicing party. He wants you there too, even when you don't feel like it.
Plus, his delight in us comes with a boundless benefit package which I had no idea existed until I stumbled on terrific teachers Carrie Pickett, Daniel Amstutz and Carlie Terradez who offer practical insights and answers. Don't miss the Q & A's at the end of this link.
