Pat Wells
I’m Pat Wells, a husband, dad, grandfather (Gramps) and an elder at WPC. I have a passion and heart for encouraging and coming alongside men who are struggling with sexual sin and addiction in their lives, because I too have struggled. Over the years God, in His grace and mercy, has allowed me and many others to overcome the struggle. He has brought growth in my relationship with Him, my wife, my children, my grandchildren and men in the church.
Wes Cardwell
Wes Cardwell lives in Bryan, Texas, with his wife, Dayna, and their two children, and works as a Business Developer and Division Manager in the commercial landscaping industry. In 2016, Wes came to recognize that his struggles with sexual sin and sex addiction were seriously damaging his marriage and family, leading him to seek help and begin a journey of recovery. Since then, he has remained actively involved in sex addiction recovery through accountability, counseling, community, and a growing dependence on Jesus Christ. Wes has experienced both the painful consequences of sexual sin and the hope of God’s grace and restoration, and he has developed a passion for helping others who are facing similar struggles. He desires to use his story honestly and openly to encourage individuals and marriages toward healing, freedom, accountability, and a deeper relationship with Christ.
