Steph MacleodSteph MacLeod is a singer/songwriter who studied classical guitar and music college and University and travelled the world. He gave his life to Christ as a young teenager but fell into alcohol and drug addiction and homelessness after his parents’ marriage failed.

He says: “I left the UK and travelled to Thailand where I taught English for awhile. After six months I lost my job and I began to drink huge amounts of alcohol. I was drinking at least three bottles of Thai whiskey a day. My Mother had to come and get me as I had lost four stone in weight and had a breakdown. When I got back to the UK I tried to get off the booze with the help of the doctors and medication. It didn't work and I became a self destructive person. I didn't want to stop drinking or taking drugs so I left home and became homeless where I could feed my habit in peace.”

However following a rehab course and a spiritual encounter when he felt the presence of God he started on the road to recovery. Since then he has developed a gift for songwriting and singing.
