Elliott Hughes was born and raised in Plainfield, Indiana, and has a powerful story of transformation that fuels his passion for helping others find freedom. By the age of 14, Elliott was battling addiction to drugs, pornography, and other life-controlling issues—struggles that shaped much of his early life and led him down a difficult path.

​

In August 2022, Elliott made a life-changing decision to enter Be The Bush Recovery Ministries in Tennessee, where he fully committed to a 12-month discipleship program. Through that experience, he encountered lasting transformation, graduated in August 2023, and discovered a renewed sense of purpose rooted in faith, discipline, and identity.

 

During his time in the program, God placed a clear vision on Elliott’s heart—to bring Be The Bush to Indiana. After years of prayer, planning, and preparation, that vision is now becoming a reality with the launch of Be The Bush Recovery Ministries Indiana.

 

Elliott holds his CADAC II (Certified Alcohol and Drug Abuse Consultant II) and brings both professional experience and personal understanding to the recovery space. In addition to his clinical knowledge, he has extensive experience in program development, leadership, and operations, including helping build and manage recovery-focused initiatives from the ground up.

 

He is married to his wife, Hannah, and together they are raising their two daughters, Eliana and Elizabeth. Elliott and his family reside in Hendricks County, Indiana, and are active members of Our Father’s House in Indianapolis.

 

With a deep passion to see lives restored, families rebuilt, and men walk in true freedom, Elliott is committed to helping others experience the same transformation he did. His mission is simple but powerful: to see the captives set free and lives made new through faith, structure, and community.
