Do Weak Prayers Annoy God? Ask Ruth Hovsepian!

Ever wondered if a weak, one-liner, prayer irritates God?

Wonder if you'll ever be free from the pain of remembering past mistakes?

In Part 2, Ruth Hovsepian shares how weak prayers formed the ladder to escape the muck of addiction; setting her on solid, sober ground.

Your spirit will soar as you're encouraged to know:

• God despises no one's prayer, no matter how small or frail

• Nothing can ever separate you or anyone else from the love of God

• While there is breath, there is hope

Ruth is a speaker, author, and podcaster who shares her addiction and sobriety journey to help others facing addictions or strongholds.

Ruth went through an acrimonious separation and divorce with three small children; the youngest only five months old. She raised them on her own, struggling to put food on the table, went back to school, got a job in IT, and made her way to the top, only to lose her job and, along with it, her identity. During those 15 dark years, she lived a double life, one as a successful businesswoman and mum and the second as a "party girl.” Looking back at the party years sends shivers down her spine; she lived a dangerous and life-threatening lifestyle.

Ruth is now eight years sober. With sobriety came a new beginning and renewal in her walk with God. She published her first book, 100 Days of Prayer: A Journey Into Deeper Intimacy With GOD, in 2022. Recently released is a new book, The Ultimate Conversation: Is That You, GOD? She shares her life story to help others write their own stories.

Ruth hosts a podcast, "Out of the Darkness," showcasing transformational stories of recovery and healing from traumas and addictions.
