She Surrenders - The Podcast
She Surrenders is where we talk about faith, addiction, and women all in the same place. Sherry’s 10-year struggle with alcohol ended in surrender to God and a 1,000-mile bike trip. There is an easier way! Sherry started She Surrenders out of a place of needing to find other women of faith struggling with their secrets of addiction. Her heart is to share everything about recovery and what it looks like to surrender to God and the life He calls you to live. Whatever you struggle with, you are in the right place to find encouragement and comfort that you are not alone. We all have our stuff.
Its about time we learn from each other and share our stories of surrender and the joy that can be found in a life living in recovery as a woman who loves the Lord.

Ep 67 | Sherry's Story: From Shame To Surrender
As we launch a new season of the She Surrenders Podcast, we’re starting right where it all began — with surrender.
In this heartfelt episode, recorded live at Rush Creek Bible Church in Byron Center, Michigan, She Surrenders founder Sherry Hoppen shares her raw and powerful story of addiction, surrender, and redemption.
From growing up in a Christian home to years of hiding behind shame and alcohol, Sherry opens up about the turning points that led her back to freedom through Christ — including a life-changing 1,000-mile bike ride, the founding of Selah House Recovery, and a life rooted in Ephesians 3:20 — hope.
This message is for anyone who’s ever wondered if God can redeem their story. Spoiler alert — He can. And He will.
Scripture Focus: Ephesians 3:20
“Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine…”
