Publisher's summary

From a hard-rocking life fueled by substance abuse to a hope-filled life of freedom and joy—this is music star Zach Williams's bold and vulnerable story of faith and redemption.

Before two-time GRAMMY Award winner Zach Williams penned heartfelt, faith-filled ballads like "Chain Breaker," "There Was Jesus (featuring Dolly Parton)," and "Fear Is a Liar," there was darkness. A rock-and-roll singer who thought he had all he ever wanted to make him happy, Zach instead felt empty. The drugs, alcohol, and late-night gigs played around the world couldn't satisfy the longing in his heart for a place to belong. He was desperate for change.

It came while on tour in Spain with his band, and in this powerful and poignant memoir, Zach shares in vivid detail his personal Rescue Story. He reflects on his childhood and the prophecy that kept his parents from giving up hope, his descent into the substance abuse that held him captive for so long, and ultimately the rescue he didn't think was possible but embraced with open arms.

A compelling, honest story of God's unconditional love, grace, and redemption, Rescue Story shares the intimate journey of a beloved music artist and challenges you to seek resilient hope in the trials of your own life—because Jesus offers real freedom and joy, despite the mistakes of your past.

Great Story of Redemption

I really enjoyed hearing Zach read his own story. His story really shows how God is faithful and answers prayers. Will recommend this audiobook to others.

The honest truth.

This was an amazing redemption story. Incredible writing and narration. Thank you to Zach and Crystal for being so vulnerable and honest with their emotions.
My favorite part was Zach talking about the failures of churches. I have been a Christian most of my adult life, but often did fit in at church bc I refuse to be anything but real and honest. We can’t be a light in the path of life if others never know the darkness we have come from.
I missed an opportunity to see Zach when he was performing in my area, I won’t make that mistake again.

Gratitude, Confirmation, & Encouragement

I like this because my heart was touched. The Lord has again used a Christian Artist to remind us we all struggle but are not alone. Father, God LOVES us.
