"You don't want to recover from drugs and alcohol; it's a sinful heart problem."
What drives someone to seek a life without alcohol? In the latest episode of The Addiction Connection Podcast, National Transformation Month takes centre stage, challenging listeners to rethink the concept of recovery. Dr. Mark E. Shaw introduces the idea that transformation, not recovery, is the true path to overcoming addiction. With Romans 12:1-2 as a guiding light, the episode delves into the heart of addiction and faith, urging a shift from merely recovering to being transformed by God's mercy. C.J.
McMurry hosts this episode, engaging with Tommy Yap to share inspiring stories of transformation. It's all about presenting oneself as a living sacrifice and embracing spiritual worship. The podcast highlights the importance of not conforming to the world's standards but seeking a metamorphosis akin to a caterpillar becoming a butterfly. The episode also teases exciting upcoming events like the summit in February 2026, offering a blend of spiritual renewal and sunny Florida vibes. With guest appearances from Dr.
Heath Lambert and other leaders, it's an invitation to experience fellowship and growth. Listeners are encouraged to embrace transformation over recovery, understanding that addiction is not a disease but a heart issue. This fresh perspective offers hope and direction, showcasing how faith can lead to lasting change. So, what are you waiting for? Dive into this transformative journey and discover how faith can truly renew your mind and spirit. Are you ready to be transformed rather than just recover?
