Christ died for that guy and he died for you. He died so that you would have life, life eternal. He died that that guy would have life eternal too. He died to bring you into that guy's life in order to lift that guy up rather than to tear that guy down.
Have you ever wondered how faith can help you break free from addiction? In this episode of 'Relational Recovery', the hosts from The Refuge Ministry take you on a heartfelt journey through the book of Romans. They explore how Christian spirituality and psychology can work hand-in-hand to support recovery. The discussion kicks off with Paul’s teachings on how God declares believing sinners righteous, not by their obedience to the law, but through a newfound relationship with Him by faith.
This episode dives deep into the transformative power of faith and how it can be a cornerstone in overcoming unwanted behaviors. The hosts share that while science shows behavior change is possible, the path to recovery is often challenging and requires forgiveness, love, endurance, and strength of character. They also touch upon God's promise to Abraham and his descendants, emphasizing that this promise hinges on faith rather than adherence to the law.
The episode wraps up with a poignant quote: 'Christ died for that guy and he died for you. He died so that you would have life, life eternal. He died that that guy would have life eternal too. He died to bring you into that guy's life in order to lift that guy up rather than to tear that guy down'.
This quote beautifully encapsulates the episode's message about the importance of forgiveness, love, and faith in the journey to recovery. Whether you're struggling with addiction or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a beacon of hope and practical advice for finding strength and healing through faith.
