What drives someone to seek a life without alcohol? In this episode of 'How it Happens with Colin Cook', you'll find a riveting exploration of faith and its transformative power in addiction recovery. Colin dives into the teachings of Paul, particularly focusing on the idea that humanity is trapped under the kingdom of sin and death, and how only through Christ can we be liberated.
With a mix of biblical analysis and practical reflections, the episode challenges the listener to rethink their understanding of sin and redemption. Colin discusses how the law we strive to follow doesn't elevate us but rather highlights our shared human struggle with sin. This isn't just a theological debate; it's a call to understand that peace comes not from our own efforts but through recognising what Christ has done for us.
For those battling addiction, this perspective can be eye-opening, offering a path to peace that isn't reliant on personal perfection but on spiritual acceptance.

Colin's engaging storytelling and light-hearted approach make complex ideas accessible and relatable.
He offers reassurance that even when our minds are tormented by guilt or the pressure to be better, there's solace in knowing that faith, not deeds, is what truly justifies us. Whether you're grappling with addiction or simply curious about how faith intersects with personal struggles, this episode provides both comfort and challenge. So, what does it mean to find peace in a world of chaos? Tune in to find out.
