Alongside his wife, Kim, their nonprofit organization, Freedom Lake, has a nearby property with a 20-bed dorm inside the facility to provide a place for recently released men to reintegrate into society and find purpose in their lives. Joining this episode to share their journey are Kevin and Travis, former addicts who have been helped through Freedom Lake. 

Our CEO Dave Calzi covers these topics with our guests: 

  • Tony's story and the launch of Freedom Lake
  • How does the home we grew up in shape our story? 
  • How can we help those with traumatic backgrounds reenter society? Where do we start? 
  • Are we all "incarcerated" in different ways? Why or why not? 
  • As the New Year rolls on, they give advice on removing bad habits and replacing them with lasting change

Tony and Kim have served inside the prison system since 2018 helping men affected by substance and alcohol abuse find their identity in Christ, reach their God-given potential, and discover God’s purpose for their lives.
