Alton's Story
Before I turned 18… I’d already been locked up more than once.
By my late 20s… I was deep in the streets—addicted, hustling, and sitting in a prison cell.
That’s where I broke. That’s where I cried out to God. I didn’t have the answers… But I trusted Jesus to save me.
After getting clean and walking out of that cell— I stepped into a whole new fight. Relapse. Trauma. More bad decisions. It wasn’t pretty… But I didn’t quit.
Now I’ve held the same job for over a decade. I’ve got a home (mortgage and all 😂)… A family that’s still in the fight. We’re not perfect— But I’m still standing. Still rebuilding.
I built Faith & Grit because too many people fall back into darkness with nobody walking beside them. This ain’t about pretending to be perfect. It’s about becoming who God created you to be.
Because here’s the truth: Identity changes everything. When you rebuild who you are— how you live begins to shift.
If God can rebuild a felon like me… Just imagine what He can do with you.
