Empowering men to live lives of sobriety through devotion to God and intentional Discipleship.
Unlike traditional recovery models, Better Roads is rooted in the life changing power of Christ. While treatment plays a role, we believe in radical ownership and the lasting freedom comes through the work of the Holy Spirit and the truth of God’s Word. Treatment may manage symptoms, but transformation brings renewal.
Transformation-Not Treatment
Discipleship Focused
Through Bible based discipleship, Discipleship is a key to how we operate here at better roads,
men learn to apply God’s Word to everyday life, As they grow, they learn to recognize the work of the Holy Spirit, invite God into their areas of struggle, and through accountability and life on life community men will be formed into the likeness of Christ.
our programs last an average of 12-24 months. This timeframe provides ample opportunity for men to confront their destructive choices, their self-sabotaging behavior, and their unhealthy views. To Be encouraged and strengthened then gives them a safe place to establish a new “normal” assured of the love of God and under the guidance of Biblical principles.
Long term housing
At Better Roads we believe in serving the community, getting outside your self and giving your time, talents and treasures to serve the Lord by helping the greater community in Rapid City SD
Here at Better Roads, we believe in radical ownership, not living in shame over our mistakes, but learning from them. You are forgiven, and you will grow through your failures so that you can be launched into new heights and new depths in your life with the Lord.
“What you tolerate in life will consume you, what consumes you will control you, and what controls you will ultimately destroy you.”
At Better Roads, we do not tolerate. We take radical ownership so we can obtain the Better Road that is ahead.
Iron sharpens irons so one man sharpens another we believe that living in a life of accountability, a place where there is no where to hide and having brothers that hold you to your word for that is what breaks addiction and chains for the rest of your life, a place of spiritual breakthrough.
Price’s Testimony
There was a time when Price’s life was completely overtaken by meth addiction. What started as a choice slowly became bondage and began pulling apart his identity, relationships, and hope. Addiction pushed him into isolation and darkness and eventually into places he never thought he would end up.
At his lowest point, Price was found alone in a barn. He was exhausted, broken down, and unsure of what to do next. That moment became a turning point. The path he was on was leading toward death, but God was not finished with him. Our Founder Brent pulled Price out and gave him a place to stay, Brent showed Price what its like to follow Jesus and cry out to him.
Change did not happen instantly. Through surrender, accountability, and life on life discipleship, Price began the long road of transformation. Sobriety became a daily decision. With other men walking beside him, he learned to take responsibility, tell the truth, and rebuild what addiction had torn apart.
As healing came, so did purpose. After years of addiction and isolation, Price now serves as a police officer in the very community he once felt disconnected from. Instead of addiction calling the shots, integrity and discipline guide his life today. That shift came through God’s grace and the power of discipleship.
Price’s story is proof that no one is beyond hope. When men walk together with truth and brotherhood, freedom is possible and lives can be restored.
Will’s Testimony
For a long time, I believed I had my life under control. In truth, I was completely powerless.
Addiction ran my life, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t fix it on my own. Every day I told
myself things would change, but they never did. I had the desire to do what was right, but not
the ability to carry it out. Everything began to change when I finally surrendered. What felt like
defeat at the time became the beginning of freedom. I stopped pretending I was strong enough
and admitted that I needed help. Through treatment and prayer, God began to open my eyes. I
learned that recovery wasn’t about fixing myself, it was about letting Jesus Christ rebuild me.
After treatment, I came to Better Roads. That’s where things truly started to come together.
Better Roads isn’t just a place to stay sober, it’s a place where I learned how to live. Through
structure, accountability, fellowship, and a growing relationship with Christ, I began to
understand that sobriety is only the starting point. Real recovery means becoming someone
new. At Better Roads, I found brotherhood and discipleship. I learned responsibility, discipline,
and what it looks like to walk out my faith in everyday life. I started to see how God had been
working in my life all along even in the moments when I thought He was silent. For most of my
life, I chased what the world told me I needed comfort, success, escape. None of it ever filled
the emptiness inside me. When I encountered Jesus, everything changed. Now my desire is no
longer for the things of this world, but to seek Him and become who He created me to be.
Today, I wake up knowing I still need God. I don’t have everything figured out, but I’ve learned
that real strength comes from humility and daily surrender. I no longer see my story as one of
failure, but of redemption. Better Roads helped give me the tools, the structure, and the
community I needed to continue walking forward in faith and recovery. No matter how broken
the past may be, I believe there is hope and there is a better road ahead.
