Creed's Scott Stapp Shares Powerful Insights on How God Uses Our Struggles and Failures for Good

As Creed embarks on their first tour after a lengthy hiatus, Stapp's story of redemption is more relevant than ever. Stapp, who has been candid about his struggles, shared how his faith and family were instrumental in pulling him out of the darkest periods of his life.

"One thing that's great is God can take our messes and turn them into a message. He can take our pain and give it purpose; you know what I mean?" he said.

His words reflect the heart of his healing process—transforming his suffering into a source of strength for himself and others going through similar battles. Reflecting on his role in helping others, Stapp emphasized his unique connection with struggling people.

"When I get in a room of men who are struggling, who are going through the darkest of times, who are facing, you know, addiction, alcoholism, depression, when I speak to them, they know I'm coming from a place of 'I've been there,'" he said. "I can speak their language; you know what I mean?  So, God has given me a way to connect with those individuals in a way that, if you haven't been through them, you can't do it."

This empathy and understanding are at the core of his outreach, allowing him to touch lives beyond the music. Everyone has been through dark valleys and life's storms, but as Scott mentioned in the clip, it's through those experiences that we can help those who might be dealing with similar issues and experiences.

It was never God's intention that human beings experience this life alone. People are made to have and build relationships with one another.

Genesis 2:18 "And the Lord God said, 'It is not good for the man to be by himself: I will make one like himself as a help to him."
