"Breaking Free From Addictions"
You may think that this sounds crazy, but I call this a wonderful coincidence. I went to my mailbox today and The Good News magazine, including the article "Breaking Free From Addictions," was the only piece of mail in there.
I have just moved on recently from an evil addiction and an abusive relationship. I read your article and it really moved me. Everything described exactly what I have been through. I am now clean. I feel uplifted and quite excited to start a brand new life. Illegal drugs are truly evil and they will destroy everything and anyone around you. I am truly blessed to find God. I look forward to reading this magazine for the rest of my life, for it did open my eyes more than ever.

Readers affected by abusive relationships may wish to request our free reprint article titled "Dealing With Abuse." Among the subjects it covers are understanding abuse, child abuse, emotional healing, sexual abuse and breaking free from sexual addictions such as pornography. "Dealing With Abuse" is available either in print or at www.gnmagazine.org/reprints.
I am a therapist in a jail working with persons who have both mental health problems and chemical addictions. My charge is to enhance readiness and motivation for treatment upon release. Exploring spiritual, philosophical and existential issues is an essential part of the curriculum. I am wondering if you could send me [multiple] copies of The Good News magazine that contains the article "Breaking Free From Addictions." I will use it as a part of the reading material for the class.

The Good News
In the last issue, L.B. of Texas wrote that he can no longer read The Good News because its writings do not coincide with those of his faith. The only way one can learn the truth is by reading sources which have information other than what one is trained to believe. I read The Good News even though I am Jewish because it is written in a straightforward and honest manner.
