Character Bio

After reaching the depths of his addictions, William Banks turned to God with a proposal: give him a second chance and he would be his avenging angel. Now he leads a rag-tag team devoted to helping other addicts get clean by any means necessary. He juggles his work with his rocky relationships with a wife who previously left him twice and his kids who haven't forgiven his absences during multiple stints in jail and rehab
William Banks Quotes
 | Season 2 / Episode 12: - Crossing The Threshold
William Banks: [voiceover] People do a whole lot of things in the name of love, more than I ever thought possible. When we first made this deal, you and me, I remember thinking about that, about love. I never really felt it, even when it was offered to me, because I knew I didn't deserve it, so I could never understand it. A pastor I know, one of the better ones, he pointed me toward a verse in the Old Testament, it went something like this: There are three things that amaze me, no, there are four things that I don't understand. The way of an eagle in the sky. The way of a ship at sea. The way of a serpent on a rock. And the way a man loves a woman. And once I got clean, I understood them all: the eagle, the ship, and even the man and the woman. But what I knew best, what I knew from my gut, was the way of that serpent. And how he can destroy even the most beautiful love of all. |

William Banks: [voiceover] There are four things that amaze me, even though now I finally think I've begun to understand them. In fact, it's the very fact that I understand them that makes them so amazing. The way of an eagle in the sky. The way of a ship at sea. The way of a serpent on a rock. And the way a man loves a woman. And for me, there's a fifth thing, more amazing than the eagle, more inspiring than the ship, more potent than the serpent, and even more beautiful than the man and the woman. It's the way of the family, because without them, there's nothing worth loving. |
