EP 120: When Alcohol Attacks a Marriage: A Husband's Journey to Help His Wife Heal

The Catholic Sobriety Podcast

Kevin Wells opens his heart to share a powerful testimony of standing by his wife through her battle with alcoholism after his own near-death experience with brain surgery. This deeply personal conversation reveals how a marriage threatened by addiction found healing through unwavering faith and the guidance of an extraordinary priest.

For those currently walking alongside a loved one struggling with addiction, Kevin offers hard-earned wisdom about the virtues of fortitude and faith. His practice of contemplative prayer—"resting my head against Christ's heart"—sustained him through years of uncertainty. For those personally struggling with alcohol, he encourages heeding the conscience's warnings and making the courageous choice to seek help.

Five years into recovery, Kevin and Krista have experienced the restoration that seemed impossible during their darkest days. Their story stands as living proof that with faith, perseverance, and proper spiritual support, even deeply wounded marriages can find healing and renewed joy through Christ.
