During the Fall of 2019, Creed frontman Scott Stapp talked to CCM Magazine's Andrew Greer and opened up about his long battle with depression, addiction, and the road to recovery—a journey that has profoundly shaped his music and life. 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," he said. His words reflect the heart of his healing process—transforming his suffering into a source of strength not only for himself but also for others going through similar battles. Reflecting on his role in helping others, Stapp emphasized the unique connection he feels with those who are struggling. "When I get in a room of men who are struggling, who are facing addiction, alcoholism, depression, they know I'm coming from a place of 'I've been there.' I can speak their language. God has given me a way to connect with those individuals in a way that, if you haven't been through it, you can't do it." This empathy and understanding are at the core of his outreach, allowing him to touch lives beyond the music.
