As an award-winning gospel singer and songwriter, he had all the world could offer.
LaVerne Tripp held the distinction of being the only person to write and record three number one songs to
consecutively reach the top of the national gospel music charts. His many fans could only see the glamour and
excitement of his standing room only concert appearances. The world had offered LaVerne everything he had ever dreamed
of. Yet, behind the scenes, the king of gospel music was addicted to drugs and alcohol.
But God had a better plan for LaVerne's life.
Over the past 29 years of ministry, LaVerne has seen more than 500,000 souls born into the Kingdom of God, traveled
around the world, built Bible schools, churches, children's homes, and now is the sole sponsor of 300 children adopted
in India.
Now LaVerne joins us to host a brand-new series called
Born To Be Free: an innovative and inspirational
series on overcoming addictions. This series will feature testimonies and practical help for those seeking freedom from
all types of addictive behavior.
LaVerne now knows the truth: God turned his life around and is using him to help
others with the same or similar addictions by showing them that they were Born To Be Free!
