CTP (S4E170) David Ebel Renew Restore Rebuild Reinspire
We talk with David Ebel about surviving a medically catastrophic start to life, years of pain, addiction, and suicide attempts, and the church encounter he says turned him sober and hopeful in a moment. We trace how that turning point becomes a lifelong mission built around Renew, Restore, Rebuild, and Reinspire, plus the podcast work he’s doing now to share hope stories worldwide. 
• growing up in Detroit with disability, bullying, and severe chronic pain 
• college pressure, nervous breakdown, depression, alcoholism, and drug use 
• multiple suicide attempts and the moment he believes God protected him 
• the candle shop, the graveyard drawing, and someone refusing to walk away 
• arriving at church intoxicated, feeling out of place, and responding to an altar call 
• making sense of salvation, forgiveness, and learning faith through community 
• Renew, Restore, Rebuild, and Reinspire as a step-by-step framework for change 
• church as an emergency room rather than a club, plus a critique of “churchianity” 
• God Says Yes podcast, global interviews, and his memoir about resilience and faith
