Walking Through Recovery | Wyatt’s Story
Looking for affirmation and trying to impress others was the start of Wyatt’s journey into addiction. Validation soon took precedence over relationships with family and friends, and Wyatt found himself headed for prison, not sure where to turn next. Faced with the choice of continuing down a destructive path or embracing change, he opted for giving Heartland a try.
Change for Wyatt came as he worked one on one with Men’s Recovery group leaders. “I saw that what they came from wasn’t too far off from what I was coming from… but it wasn’t just them doing it, it was something else in their life and that was Jesus.” Graduating from the program, Wyatt has built strong and meaningful relationships. He encourages those grappling with addiction to recognize that change isn’t solely about one’s actions or location, “It’s the people that you’re going to constantly surround yourself with.”
If you’re looking for real life change, reach out to Heartland Recovery. We continue to see men like Wyatt set on a new path of freedom and life.

Friends of the College Banquet 2024
Thursday, April 18th
6-8:00pm
This year’s banquet will be held on Thursday, April 18th at Heartland Christian College’s Legacy House, 321 Mercy St, Bethel. This year we are focusing on the celebration of our International students and our ability, through accreditation to be able to accept students from other countries. Many of which do not have the opportunity in their own country, or the funds for this country, to pursue God in a Biblical education. Come hear from some of our current and alumni International students on the impact you, as our supporters, have had in their lives. Funds raised at this event will go towards the International Scholarship Fund. We have several International students in applicant status that would love to study at HCC, but do not have all the funds needed to make this a reality. We need your help to make this a reality for hopefully many more to come.
Click here to make a reservation or call 573-633-5610. RSVP by April 11th.
We are grateful to all of our “Friends of the College” for your support each year. Providing affordable, quality, biblical education requires a wide community of friends. As a Bible College here in the midwest, we have a strong desire to both serve and partner with the larger Northeast Missouri community. HCC is here to equip and prepare a generation to fulfill the call of God on their lives and in so doing, to make a real difference in our communities, in our nation and even around the world. The boost we receive from the community, through attending the dinner, helps us accomplish this goal.
Watch for details on our events page about this evening where friends of the College will enjoy a great meal of international cuisine, meet students and faculty, and learn how to become part of what God is doing at HCC.

Walking Through Recovery | Brianna’s Story
Starting at the age of 12, Brianna smoked cigarettes and drank alcohol which later lead to methamphetamine and harder drugs. From that point things quickly started getting out of hand. She shared, “My mother and grandmother could not trust me, they were worried sick about me when I wasn’t with them, and then the times that I was with them, they just couldn’t trust me.”
Brianna reached a turning point when she found herself committing crimes. She arrived at Heartland Recovery which began a transformative time for her in understanding self-forgiveness and the importance of communication, though she was initially unable to converse due to paranoia.
Now, Brianna places her trust in God, and has committed her life to serving Him. She encourages those struggling with addiction, “There is no sin, no flaw that is too big or too small for God to forgive you. You can be forgiven and salvation is 100% all the time available to you.” Reach out to Heartland Recovery today for help!

Walking Through Recovery | Tyler’s Story
Born into addiction as a baby, surrounded by addiction as a child, then seeking validation from his father all led Tyler down a path of substance abuse which eventually landed him in prison. Losing his family and feeling utterly hopeless, Tyler acknowledges that he hit rock bottom, “I had given up on life itself.” After a failed suicide attempt, he cried out to God and drove through the night to find help at Heartland.
Tyler credits his turnaround to surrendering his life to Jesus and trusting in others. Reunited with his family and embracing fatherhood, “I’m free to be a dad and I’m free to be a husband and I’m free to be a child of God.” His message is simple: hold on to hope. If you’re facing similar struggles, Tyler’s journey shows us that change and freedom are possible through Jesus Christ. Reach out to Heartland Recovery today and see how we can help you.
