From the Roughest of Starts | Uwe Heimowski
Playback speed
Overcoming the carnage of hideous family brokenness and addiction, Uwe’s journey through alcohol, drugs and gambling to a place of national prominence in the political space is nothing short of miraculous. His experiences include years spent in Hamburg’s red light district with the Salvation Army (where we met), developing and running a delinquents’ home, pastoring a church, raising five children of his own, being involved in regional and then national politics, representing the Evangelical Alliance, and latterly as the CEO of Tearfund.
