There is hope for addiction, and I believe it's in the local church, another passion of our ministry.
Imagine battling addiction with the strength of faith by your side. The very first episode of 'The Addiction Connection Podcast' sets out to do just that. Hosted by Dr. Mark E. Shaw, CJ McMurry, and Jim Quigley, this episode introduces listeners to the podcast's mission: intertwining the hope found in the Gospel with the challenges of addiction recovery.
The hosts dive into the profound impact addiction has on individuals and communities, sharing both personal and professional experiences that reveal the devastating effects of substance abuse. What makes this episode stand out is its focus on the local church as a beacon of God's love for those struggling with addiction. The hosts emphasize that addiction isn't merely a disease but often stems from deeper heart issues and choices.
They discuss the transformative power of confession, repentance, and faith in Christ, advocating for personal responsibility and accountability as crucial elements in recovery. Listeners will find practical advice and resources for addiction recovery, all grounded in faith-based principles. The hosts also touch on the joy and fulfillment that come from a life centered on God, offering encouragement and hope to those on their recovery journey.
