Chef Tyson’s journey from addiction and chaos to healing and redemption through the grace of Jesus

"And I think that's why it took me 20 years to come back to the church is because it was never enough. Fear was not enough to get me to come back to the church. Shame was not enough to get me to come back to the church. Honestly, it was love, like, love brought me back to the church. So, you know, I've got too much proof. I'm still in the culinary world, there's still temptation, still surrounded by all the same stuff. But I pray every night. I do all the things right? I read my scriptures. I go to church. I take the sacrament. Those things that we teach the little kids in Primary, do it. That stuff's real." 00:00 Betrayal 02:08 Introducing Tyson 07:00 Struggles with Shame and Addiction 23:58 Life in the Culinary World 27:40 Battling Inadequacy and Addiction 40:08 Infidelity and Divine Intervention 44:20 Returning Home and Finding Faith 50:23 Overcoming Temptations 53:37 Final Reflections and Gratitude September 5th & 6th COME BACK TO CHRIST EVENT Tickets can be purchased at https://www.comebackpodcast.org/come-back-to-christ-event-september-5-6-utah-valley-convention-center-provo-ut-3/ Come Back to Christ Event Sponsors: https://templeboundsaints.org https://www.dfcu.com https://www.latterdaymatchmaker.comhttps://www.matthewbraidleypianos.com https://mikesautoshack.com Cozy Earth code COMEBACK for 40% off https://cozyearth.com/ Serve Clothing code COMEBACK for 15% off https://serveclothing.com/ If you have a story to share please contact ashly.comebackpodcast@gmail.com For business inquiries contact info.comebackpodcast@gmail.com Come Back Team: Director, Founder, & Host: Ashly Stone Editor: Cara Reed Outreach Manager: Jenna Carlson Assistant Editor: Michelle Berger Assistant Editor: Britt Smallze Art Director: Jeremy Garcia Production Director: Trent Wardwell
