Dave Cooper wraps up his book, 'I'm a Christian, so why am I still...' with an engaging read from Chapter 12. In this episode of 'Alternative to Rehab', Dave takes listeners through the final chapter, 'Discipling Your Parts'. He starts by quoting Luke 11:13 and Matthew 7:11, highlighting the human nature of the disciples and their journey to trust Jesus.

Dave shares practical exercises to help you understand and manage your different 'parts'—those aspects of yourself that react in various situations, often out of proportion. From meditative practices to recognising triggers, he offers a step-by-step guide to building a better relationship with yourself through a biblical lens. You'll hear about the importance of appreciating, educating, and negotiating with these parts, much like Jesus did with his disciples.

Dave also stresses the need for evidence-based progress, celebrating even the smallest victories as signs of growth. His anecdotes and personal reflections make complex ideas accessible, encouraging you to see your journey as one of continuous improvement. If you're looking for a faith-based approach to recovery that combines spiritual wisdom with practical advice, this episode is a must-listen.
