Show Notes
In this powerful episode of Faith Over Addiction, host Tanya Gioia welcomes Susan Bosma—known as the Gospel Granny—who shares her extraordinary testimony of dying on an operating table in 1974 and encountering Jesus Christ. What she experienced revealed a profound biblical truth about the afterlife that many Christians have never been taught.
Susan opens up about her journey from nominal Christianity to radical faith, her personal battle with cigarette addiction, and walking alongside family members struggling with addiction. Through her 50-year walk with Christ, she offers hope, biblical wisdom, and practical encouragement for those affected by addiction—both personally and within their families.
This episode explores Scripture, spiritual warfare, fasting and prayer, hearing God’s voice, and a powerful prophetic dream that exposes how addiction disguises destruction while attempting to steal the fruit God has placed inside His people.
If you are struggling with addiction—or loving someone who is—this conversation will remind you that Jesus sees you, walks with you, and still restores what feels lost.

Are you caught in the chaos of addiction, constantly cleaning up emotional, spiritual, and physical messes that aren't yours? Welcome to Faith Over Addiction, where faith meets real life. Hosted by Family Recovery Coach Tanya Gioia, this podcast is designed to offer Christian women hope, healing, and practical tools to navigate the challenges of loving someone with addiction.
Through biblical truths, heartfelt stories, and actionable guidance, you’ll learn how to set healthy boundaries, find peace in the mess, and reclaim your God-given identity. You don’t have to carry what was never meant to be yours. It’s time to shift from “this is happening to me” to “this is happening for me,” and let God transform the chaos into something that glorifies Him.
Every week, I’m here to encourage you, offer clarity, and remind you that as a daughter of the King, You Always Have Other Options (YAHOO). Together, we’ll embrace faith as the foundation, boundaries as the bridge to healing, and God’s truth as the ultimate guide to freedom, strength, and grace.
Blessings,
Tanya Gioia 🌸
