• Black Sheep - Episode #55: Buried in Darkness, Raised in Christ — The Story of Danny Ivey
    Dec 6 2025

    From addiction at 13… to juvenile detention… to Parchman at 17… to gangs, grief, and generational curses — Danny Ivey spent years buried in darkness with no clear way out.

    But God resurrects what the world writes off.

    A gun charge, a baby on the way, and a desperate cry to Heaven led Danny to Mercy House, where Jesus broke chains that generations couldn’t. Today he stands as a husband, father, peer support leader at Belmont Gardens, teacher and preacher at Mercy House, and a minister-in-training. His scars became sermons. His pain became purpose.

    This is redemption — raw, honest, unfiltered.

  • Episode #54 - From Hate to Holy Fire: The Redemption of PJ Smith
    Nov 29 2025

    Today, PJ Smith steps into the Black Sheep arena and drops a testimony that feels more like a spiritual battlefield than an interview. This man was born into chaos — addiction, violence, brokenness — long before he ever picked up his first drink or drug. By 12 years old he was getting high in a Mississippi trailer park… and the darkness only got deeper from there.

    He buried friends.

    He crashed through prison cells.

    He destroyed his body.

    He lost everything.

    He should’ve died more than once.

    And he WANTED to die more than once.

    But God walked straight into the fire.

    🔥 A 40-foot fall that SHOULD have ended his life…

    🔥 A prison moment where he planned murder but opened a Bible instead…

    🔥 A July 4th encounter where God ripped alcohol out of his soul…

    🔥 A journey of rebuilding his mind, his family, his faith, and his identity…

    This isn’t just a testimony.

    This is WARFARE.

    PJ exposes addiction, generational trauma, psychosis, relapse, recovery, and the supernatural deliverance that ONLY Jesus can bring.

    If you’re struggling…

    If your family is fighting for hope…

    If you feel like the black sheep…

    Today’s episode is your reminder:

    GOD STILL SAVES. GOD STILL REDEEMS. GOD STILL RESTORES.

    Black Sheep don’t blend in — we break chains.

  • Episode #49 - From Chains to Calling: Billy Branton’s Journey from Habitual Offender to Freedom Fighter in Christ.
    Jul 17 2025

    In this gripping episode of the Black Sheep Recovery Warfare Podcast, John and Monica sit down with Billy Branton—a man whose story is nothing short of miraculous. From experimenting with drugs at 14, to a spiraling life of addiction, over 60 arrests, a bad conduct discharge from the Air Force, and facing a life sentence as a habitual offender… Billy’s road was dark. But in the heart of his wilderness, he encountered the living Word of God.

    With nothing but a Bible and a desperate cry for truth, Billy gave up everything except Jesus. After 3.5 years of radical transformation behind bars, he walked out a free man with a vow to serve the Lord. Today, he’s a business owner, a father restored to his son, and a warrior for recovery—helping launch Celebrate Recovery groups and using his story to pull others from the fire.

    You don’t want to miss this one. It’s raw. It’s real. It’s redemption.
