Ever wondered what it takes to maintain a healthy conscience while tackling addiction? Colin Cook takes listeners on a reflective journey through Romans 14:22-23, revealing the nuances of balancing personal faith and societal expectations. In this episode, Colin explores the delicate line between privacy and secrecy, particularly for those grappling with addiction. He shares how understanding this distinction can lead to a healthier mindset and stronger faith.
Colin uses relatable anecdotes, like the temptation of a doughnut, to illustrate the 'yes-no syndrome'—a common internal conflict faced by many in recovery. The episode also delves into how one's faith can be a guiding light in making decisions that align with personal beliefs without succumbing to external pressures.

This episode is perfect for anyone interested in understanding how faith and personal choices intersect in the journey to sobriety. It offers a compassionate perspective on overcoming addiction while fostering a supportive environment for personal growth. Are you ready to embrace your personal journey with faith and freedom?
