Freddie Owens was part of the first open conflict in Vietnam in 1965. During that time, was wounded in action, and like most soldiers who fought in the Vietnam War, he returned home to a country that did not appreciate the depth of sacrifice that took place there. Over the many years following the war, Freddie struggled with post-traumatic stress. It was in the late 1990’s that Freddie and his wife were invited to Redemption Church, and they found a place to call their spiritual home. Here, Freddie found the kind of healing that only God can bring – healing of more than the physical wounds. Freddie found Redemption here.
