Country star T. Graham Brown was always a “believer in Jesus,” but, over time, he sort of “drifted away” from the truth—that is, until a conversation with himself and God ushered in a real-life miracle.
Brown, 69, told Fox News he was baptized early in life and was “always … a believer in Jesus.” But, as time went on, he found himself on the wrong path, struggling with addiction and mental health issues.

“I was always taught about Jesus, and I don’t think even in my drunkest days, I don’t think I ever missed saying my prayers at night,” he once told Jesus Calling. “I don’t really remember ever not doing that: I’ve always said my prayers.”
But the chaos kept progressing. At one point, he was pouring vodka into his coffee in the morning — just one of the signs he was no longer in control.
Eventually, it all came to a head.
“One morning — and this is a cliché of a story — but I’d been trying to get sober,” he told Fox News. “I’d get on the horse and ride for a while, then fall off. I’d get on the horse, ride awhile and fall off. I went to rehab. That didn’t help.”
It wasn’t until Brown had an honest conversation with himself and the Lord one morning around 14 years ago that everything came together.
“I think I was ready, and I can remember it like it was yesterday,” he said. “I looked in the mirror and I actually talked to myself. I said, ‘Man, what are you doing? You’re about to blow everything. You need to straighten up and do something about this, man. You’re smarter than this.’”
But that wasn’t all Brown proclaimed. He also made a request of God.
“And I asked God to help me,” he said. “And you know, from that instant—I have not had one craving.”
