X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p><em>About the author:</em></p>\n<p><strong
 >Matt Grace</strong> is an author\, speaker\, and transformational recover
 y expert who has devoted his life to helping people break free from addict
 ion and reclaim their future. With more than twenty years of sobriety\, a 
 bachelor&rsquo\;s degree in Addiction Studies with a focus on Integrative 
 Healing\, and over 10\,000 hours mentoring individuals and families\, he h
 as become a trusted guide to both the highly privileged and the deeply ove
 rlooked. Today\, Matt speaks nationally on addiction\, recovery\, and rede
 mption\, bringing raw honesty\, practical structure\, and hard-won wisdom 
 to audiences across every walk of life. His mission is simple: to dismantl
 e the lies of addiction\, restore families\, and prove that rock bottom is
  not the end&mdash\;it&rsquo\;s the beginning. Matt Grace stands as proof 
 that when service becomes your higher power\, transformation becomes possi
 ble.</p>\n<p>In <em><strong>God Doesn&rsquo\;t Relapse: Sex\, Drugs\, and 
 the Life That Almost Killed Me</strong></em>\, Matt Grace offers an unfilt
 ered account of addiction through lived experience. Grace pulls readers in
 to the chaos of addiction with unflinching clarity &mdash\; compulsive beh
 avior\, broken relationships\, escalating consequences\, and the psycholog
 ical spiral that nearly killed him. He does not soften the damage inflicte
 d on himself or others. Instead\, he offers a stark\, human portrait of ad
 diction stripped of clich&eacute\; or excuse.</p>\n<p>Now more than two de
 cades sober\, Grace reflects on the discipline\, humility\, and community 
 support required to sustain change. His account traces not only personal r
 ehabilitation but also the broader realities confronting individuals and f
 amilies navigating addiction.</p>\n<p>At its core\,&nbsp\;<strong><em>God 
 Doesn&rsquo\;t Relapse</em></strong>&nbsp\;explores recovery as an ongoing
  process grounded in service\, responsibility\, faith\, and connection. By
  pairing stark personal testimony with broader social context\, the memoir
  contributes to an evolving conversation about addiction and the possibili
 ty of lasting transformation.</p>\n<p><br />Complimentary copies of the bo
 ok are available through July 24 by following this link: <a href="https://
