HIJACKED:

How addiction rewires the brain and poisons the spirit

On January 10, 2020 some 250 people came out to 1st United Methodist Church for the 2nd Hijacked conference outlining the roots of the addiction problem and how people are working to address it.   Tim Hilton returned as the keynote speaker.  He is an expert in the field of addiction and helps explains how breaking an addiction isn't as simple as just saying you are going to stop a certain habit.  There are many factors in your brain that decide the path you are going to take.  


There were several other speakers including Dr. Keith Bailey, Dr. Monty Burke, Pastor Jeremy Graham (of True Purpose Ministries) and about half a dozen community organizations all specializing in recovery.

 

Plans are underway to host another Hijacked event in 2021.
