Gratitude, being thankful even for difficulties and challenges, is where baby believers turn into mature believers, because they're beginning to recognize the sovereign hand of god and that god is good and loving.
What if sobriety is just the beginning? In this episode of 'The Addiction Connection Podcast', hosts Dr. Mark E. Shaw, CJ McMurry, and Jim Quigley, along with special guest Dr. Bill Hines, explore the idea that there’s more to recovery than simply staying sober. They kick things off by discussing the importance of being filled with the Holy Spirit and how it's not just about avoiding alcohol but living a spirit-led life.
Ephesians' cultural setting is brought into the conversation, shedding light on the unsatisfying cycle of addiction many face. The discussion then shifts to the concept of 'worship disorder', where addiction can become a form of self-worship. The hosts emphasize that true recovery involves gratitude, even for life's challenges, and approaching God with boldness and repentance. This episode is a thought-provoking journey for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of addiction recovery through a Christian lens.
