You start with Jesus, who is the truth, the word of god, same thing as doctrine. And so your attitude towards alcohol has to be.
Imagine sitting in a self-help meeting and daring to share the transformative power of the Gospel. In this episode of 'The Addiction Connection Podcast', Dr. Mark E. Shaw takes listeners on a journey through his daily devotional book, 'Cross-Talking: A Daily Gospel for Transforming Addicts'. Dr. Shaw kicks things off by challenging the notion of any higher power being sufficient, emphasizing that Jesus Christ is the only true path to God.
This episode isn't just about faith; it's about real, actionable change. Dr. Shaw delves into Day 27 of his devotional, titled 'The Lord Examines the Heart', referencing Hebrews 4:12-13. He unpacks the four key elements of God's Word as outlined in 2 Timothy 3:16 and Ephesians 4:22-24, stressing the necessity of repentance and personal transformation. Have you ever wondered how to truly get filled with the Holy Spirit? Dr. Shaw provides practical insights on this, rooted in Ephesians 5:18.
But it doesn't stop there. The episode also explores the profound relationship between pleasure and glorifying God, a topic often overlooked in addiction recovery discussions. Dr. Shaw shares heartfelt personal stories from his counseling experiences, offering a blend of empathy and wisdom that’s hard to find elsewhere. For those wrestling with addiction or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a beacon of hope.
It's a candid look at how faith can lead to profound change, making it a must-listen for anyone seeking spiritual and emotional healing.
