Mother Recovery.
The Legacy of Debbie Pridgen. Boldness, Faith, and Restoration.
Debbie Pridgen.
"I was a defender of the underdog. I had a boldness about me even in my early teens."
The Rebellious Years
As a child, I was loud, talkative, hyper and had to be the center of attention. I got a spanking every Sunday for 'showing out' in church. I was very rebellious and did some very stupid things. Growing up, I was a defender of the underdog. I had a boldness about me even in my early teens. My motto was: the bigger they are, the harder they fall.
The Downward Spiral
I made some very bad choices, including not being the mother that I should have been. I got divorced at age 21 and the downward spiral continued. For the next three years my life revolved around alcohol, sex, drugs and rock n roll. Then I met Aubrey Pridgen, and we began what I thought was the perfect relationship—leading our own lives and getting together when we wanted.
The Transformation
Our lives were out of control, but God had a plan. Through the brokenness, we found our way to Jesus. Debbie became 'Mother Recovery' to so many because she understood the pain of the journey. Her boldness transformed into a powerful weapon for the Kingdom, fighting for the souls of those trapped in addiction.
