Inspirational: Crack House Turned Upside Down In The Projects Of Dallas | Restoring LoveThis week, The Blaze was directed to a unique project of the Hands and Hearts ministries of Dallas.  The location was a notorious south Dallas crack house for years until the ministry took it over. The goal is to make it a place for men now recovering from addiction. The transformation is not yet complete, but the renaissance of the building may be one of the most inspirational thing you’ve seen in a while.

    This is a bad move on Becks part never get involved with anything regarding addicts it always goes bad in the end. Stick with just helping regular people that need help them you can trust … somewhat to do the right thing at some point.

    I was instructed to go to an alcoholic’s recover/help meeting because I came from an alcoholic family my Dad it changes you for life even if you don’t think so it does. I was so disgusted at the meeting all I wanted to do was jump up and scream at all of them my God what is wrong with you people and actually was close to beating the crap out of all of them even if I was out numbered 15 to 1 this shows how powerful any addict can have over your life even if you are not the one with the problem. You have scars from it that go deep inside you forever I’m 56 now and would still rather beat the crap out of my Dad than talk to him. I was so close to crazy violence at that meeting it shook me.

    Unless you have worked with these people you have no clue what you are talking about these people are now Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde inside two people with the nasty bad side winning out all too often and if you are around them you will get burned and come out a different person meaning you will never trust an addict ever again. I would rather spend my money on anything other than an addict I would even support Obama than another addict that’s how bad you can get burned. To me they are not worth a dime to help.

    Heartless no a realist YES be smart give your money away before getting involved with helping any addict you will be better off.

    This is a wonderful idea.

    A church group renovating a crack house to house men no longer on drugs who need a place to stay while they get their lives together.

    I would HAPPILY give my money to these people than to Habitat For Humanity – an organization which expects people who have fixer uppers to work to build brand new homes for people who did not earn that home or to the Salvation Army – which infiltrated the criminal system to become parole officers and exploit people in the system.

    I understand most of what you said and agree with some of it, but why someone becomes a drug addict is a lot more complicated than “they’re selfish.” A lot of drug addicts are self-centered, selfish people, but it’s not a requirement and it has nothing to do with them being a drug addict. Selfish people are selfish regardless of if they get high or not. For example, look at you and your comments. I assume your not a drug addict and you seem pretty selfish. In fact, you even say you are, “yeah, that’s right, I think about me first” is what you wrote, if I’m not mistaken.

    “Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not. Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee? Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me. And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.”

    “And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery… When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee? She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more. Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.”

    Repentance, love, forgiveness, faith, and peace is what we must seek. The whole world is already condemned.

    Some of the comments here are so sad.. My guess is that the people running this know what they are doing and the tenants must maintain the building and their apartments as part of the deal. Also she said the 9 people living there had jobs and even savings accounts. It sounds as though they are expected to do their part and earn their home. Someone snipped about the fish tank..give me a brake..it could have been a gift or they bought it for themselves..fish tanks are soothing. I’m not stupid and know that not all will live up to the deal but many will and that is what I will be happy about. One more thing the apt. they showed us is not the one being worked on it is one already remodled, so get over the toilet and stop looking for something to find fault with. Pray for them don’t condem them before they even have a chance to try.

    There are so many addicts that it seems the most of them are just going to die out because they come from parents who were addicts and have no support there. It is unreal how dope has caught on since the 60 or maybe before. Most of the time it seems like in the 60s, etc., the hippie era. Anyway, the dope is stronger and more of it and more types of designer drugs, and young kids use about anything to get high as seen on TV. It is like living around real zombies, for those who are not on illegal drugs are doped up on drugs they get from their doctors for every little thing. Not too many people probably have a clear head or this country would never be in the shape it is in.

    The Church, family, friends, neighbors and local communities should handle our drug related health problems. The federal Government is useless when it comes to intervention, restoration, and improving the private lives of citizens. The federal Government should send their resources to protect our borders.

    The Government has stepped in in these past decades because we Christians have failed to uphold God’s commandments. The church largely has abandoned its duties. Forgiveness, love, charity, and restoration is what these folks need.

    Here‘s a pastor who had courage to confront the drug issue like we’re supposed to:

      It is hard to help addicts. They will steal from the churches, the people who help them, their families, and kill those as well. it is a dilemma. Those people who are doling out drugs for them to get off drugs must have a racket going. They have so many doctors in each state where they have to go once a months at 125 (at least) a crack and the drugs to keep them off drugs are costing them about 400 dollars a mont, but this includes the 125. The doctor’s visit each month, is was said costs 125. This stuff is call Seboxin (sp?) It somehow tampers with the domamine or endorphins? in their brain and causes them to be regulated and the illegal drugs will not make them higher, but I guess would make them sick if they took them at the same time. That Seboxin (I am not sure that is the spelling,) is really expensive for them because many of them have hobbled themselves with addiction and are not consistent enough to work. I think that seboxin is addicting too. This must be a horrible, scary way to live after they realize what a mess of their life they have made. It is pitiful.

      @blackyb Sounds somewhat like modern day cigarettes. My Grandpa used to smoke tobacco, and I mean, home made, pure, unaldulterated tobacco, and would never have to deal with the problems modern day smokers deal with. Heck, he used to live and work at tobacco farms. Most of the problems today with modern drugs lie with the chemicals these companies or cartels use to purposefully addict their clietns. Now, imagine the Government trying to outlaw, arrest, and ruin careers in order to ‘get rid of’ addicted cigarrete smokers. Mayhem would ensue. The only real quick solution is a true awakening within the person. Something the Government can’t do. It has to be the result of a movement by the people. A spirtitual or religious revival would indeed do the trick.

      “He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.”

      Suboxone, is a god sent. You take a pill and quit getting high. It is amazing and saved my life. It does not make some one who has a history of using drugs high. People were taking, and still do, methadone. Now that is bad. Methadone is worse than a bag of heroin. It’s just legal. You can’t talk bad about Suboxone, it is unbelievable how good it works and you don’t walk around like a zombie all highed up like methadone. Any drug is bad for you, but you should see me now compared to the way I was. I’m about to start graduate school for math and physics and I have 60 lbs more muscle on my body than I did as an addict. It is like anything else though, it is what you make of it. I seen people get on Suboxone and fail. You have to want it.

    There is a halfway house for new out-of-wedlock mothers. Every single one of them is black, born into fatherless homes, pregnant by 16, mothers on welfare, and they are headed to that same place. In Lancaster County, PA, my brother and his wife were houseparents in a lovely old mansion that had been given to the “House of His Creation” ministry, which got new mothers in from the urban hellholes they inhabited, taught them how to care for their newborns, allowed them to live in the house – with very strict rules – and got them educated through the alternative high school programs offered by various public schools in Lancaster.
    Most of the mothers went back home and got on the dole. But a few. A few made it out and are responsible, taxpaying mothers with good careers. Thanks to scholarships, they were able to get through trade school or college.
    No one said there would be a 100% success rate with these addicts – and let me say, an unmarried woman with 6 kids by 6 fathers is an addict and her dealer is the Welfare Department.
    Just doing the work, just ministering hope and love to the hopeless and hateful is all that is required of us.

    Ok this is great BUT BUT I have worked with many recovering addicts and the temptation to relapse is very high. I would say most go back to the garbage they came from even if clean up to 3 years. It’s a fact that full recovery is so hard to accomplish and most never do it correct such as dumping all your old friends that had any connections to your problem. For full recovery you need a complete life change. You also need heavy moral support and to structure your life like a soldier.

He continued going through friends and family like a dose of salts and wound up dead at thirty five years old by a shotgun blast, listed as “accidental”, but I know he was a wife beater. He had it all and went to pot and more. I could say more, but I have a hard time even with this. Sometimes the best thing you can do is burn the bridge.

      Sadly, Skrwed, you are right. All too often those who are involved in addictive behaviors (Alcohol, drugs, sex, gambling, etc.) will drag the remaining family members down. It’s pretty painful. A lot of times, there has to be a clean break simply because the addicted family member has to learn to be responsible for his/her own actions and dealing with the consequences.

      Hopefully this project will provide a safe haven and a stepping stone for those who want to leave the addictive lifestyle behind them and move forward.

      Absolutely true. However the thought is what counts and God will bless the people that have poured their hearts and labor into this project. I will not give money to people that say they’re hungry, but I will buy them lunch if I have the time to sit and just talk with then, and the money to do so. subsidizing anything for anyone tends to weaken the person receiving the help, but God has called us to help our brothers and sisters and if the people that remodeled these apartments felt that God called them to do it then God has a plan. there may be a single mother that needs a little beauty in her life to realize that she can work hard and stay clean to provide her family with a place this nice on her own in the future. I know that most of these projects will be destroyed by people who fall short, but if it inspires 1 or 2 average families that is a huge impact on the ghetto. God bless the people that made this effort and God bless the future residents.

      As someone who has 9 years clean, I agree, there needs to be a life change from the inside out. For me, my faith in Christ, and having a group of strong men holding me accountable was the key. But we need places like this to get these men and woman healthy- so they themselves can step up and then serve. We call it “passing it on”.

      We can do it better then the government- but there needs to be accountability. Great work in Texas gang! My prayers are with you!! Wish I could be ther, but I’m serving back home with some teen addicts- trying to break that cycle before they become adults!

      I would also like to address all the others who are pointing out that a crack house would return to the poor condition it was previously in. I would like to point out this one key sentence ” The location was a notorious south Dallas crack house for years until the ministry took it over. ” If the ministry took over the building I am sure they will look after it the best they can while using it to help people’s recoveries, it isn’t a crack house anymore.

      All the points about how people with drug abuse problems needing to want to change themselves etc are certainly correct and those who help these people already know that, they also know that if you just chuck it back in the person trying to make a change‘s face that isn’t going to help.

      Those who live in the renovated crack house that is now a recovery house should keep it up as part of their recovery and therapy. Getting animals for them to be responsible for helps too. They will. I imagine most of them want a different life. That must be a horrible way to have to live and chase drugs to feed a habit. I have seen people who were saved and never had withdrawal and have been clean for many, many years, but it is not like that with all of them. I wish it was. Those who sell drugs and addict people have a special torment coming to them when they die, I am thinking. There should be more done to help these people for hardly any get off of the drugs. They end up dead after selling drugs and themselves and committing crimes to support that habbit. It is sounds like addicted people are the living dead and who are in some type of hell even in this life. I have also heard preachers say those that die with that habit will likely wake up in hell like they are being detoxed and crave the drug and cannot get it for an eternity. Those who sell drugs are murderers. No only the person they sell to, but the family and community where the addicts live are destroyed by this. It is a horror. Why do people even try something they know will put them in such pituful shape for the rest of their lives? They must know this, for it is not something hidden from them.

    God bless all the folks who made this transformation possible. That place was really nasty when they started, but look how beautiful it is now.

    I’ve seen these beautiful transformations of property before, just to see them fall back into ruins in just a couple of years. Hope someone holds the occupants responsible for taking good care of the property.

    Seems like when you give someone something for free, or a greatly reduced rate, and do all the remodeling for them, they don’t take care of it the way they would if they had actually worked hard on it, all by themselves.

    While it’s a laudable idea, free stuff is just that–FREE. Without personal investment in any project, I wonder how long it’ll be before the building and rooms look exactly as they did before the beautiful renovations.

    I remember the low income housing projects in Newark, NJ— Once completed and occupied, within 6 months it looked like the Warsaw ghetto but with whores and drug dealers on every corner!

    It was finally plowed under— Just another example of free stuff, the failure of an Entitlement program and a waste of millions of taxpayer dollars.

      “On my way to work I drive by some row houses that Jimmy Carter built with Habitat for Humanity. They started out nice for about 5 years, slums now. Very sad.”

      This is the problem with GIVING things to people. They didn’t work hard to buy a home for themselves with their own money. So, there is no sense of ownership. If you don’t own it, why should you bother to take of it. Also, there is no sense of self-worth. They become entitled, and feel that people should just GIVE them more things. Entitlements, welfare and public housing destroy a person’s self-worth.

      I’m disappointed in The Blaze for reporting stories like this as a positive thing. People don’t need more free stuff (even if done by a private charity). They need to learn personal responsibility. The inner city people don’t need charity, they need to get jobs. Pouring endless money into the inner city, in the form of charity, whether private or public, is not the answer.

      Beck sent out thousands of people yesterday for charity. What he should have done is hold an inner city entrepreneurial convention. Jobs, jobs, jobs.

      Goodstuff, I’m not going to bash the effort those people are making. It is a noble one. If it saves one or two people from a life (and death) of addiction, then it may be worth it.

    It looks so much better. The question now is if those who use the building will be willing to treat it with respect and keep it clean and in good condition.

      Further proof of what we, the people, can do when the government doesn’t get involved.
