Childhood trauma, mental illness, addiction, and incarceration are far too common in the U.S. today. Recovery from even one of these issues is challenging, yet many people live with the stark reality of more than one of these circumstances every day. Our systems of care offer some help, but sometimes even the best programmes don't yield lasting results.

What does a person do when medication, therapy, drug treatment, and support groups are ultimately ineffective for them? Fortunately, countless people have found healing, recovery, and lasting happiness through a spiritual solution.

In Better Than Well, author Michael Prichard shares the dark and painful story of how his childhood trauma contributed to severe mental health issues, crippling addiction, incarceration, and how he found hope, healing, and recovery through faith in God and the Biblical narrative.

Through Michael's story, you will discover that no matter how dark life gets, no matter what has happened to us or what we have done, God cares about our pain and wants to help heal us.
