Product Description

Maybe this will be the cure I’ve been praying for   

Sherry Hoppen was hiding a secret alcohol addiction. When she said yes to joining a thousand-mile bike ride for charity, it was a desperate attempt to kick-start a positive change in her life—the hard way—by riding her bike from Michigan to Texas. She asked herself, “Will this be what it takes to get me sober?” This nonathletic mom who worked in ministry and directed a children’s choir was a respected member of the community. But she also drank alone at home—and couldn’t stop.   

With her no-holds-barred honesty and humor, Sherry Hoppen recounts her many attempts and failures at achieving sobriety, and the hiding and her shame over the addiction that held her prisoner for over ten years—until the day she surrendered and God took over.  

Ten years later, Sherry is living a life of sobriety and is passionate about helping other women surrender the secret sin of addiction that cripples their faith and family life. Sober Cycle offers hope without judgment or trite mantras, assuring readers that they, too, can find redemption and healing and a life free from addiction—all without riding a bike for thousands of miles.
