Decoding TAC's Three Cross Logo with Dr. Mark E. Shaw

As we proclaim the excellencies of Christ and talk about addiction, it isn't a disease, that's a man-made idea, but it is sin.
Ever wondered about the story behind TAC's distinctive three cross logo? Dr. Mark E. Shaw takes you on a journey through the Bible, exploring the last moments of Jesus on the cross and the profound symbolism that inspired the logo. With references from Matthew, Mark, John, and Luke, Dr. Shaw sheds light on the deeper meaning of this emblem and its connection to addiction recovery.
In this episode, you'll learn that addiction is viewed not as a disease but as a sin requiring salvation through Jesus Christ. Dr. Shaw underscores the power of prayer, highlighting how Jesus himself prayed even in his final moments of agony. This episode isn't just a lesson in theology; it's a heartfelt discussion about faith, redemption, and the path to recovery.
You'll also hear about Jude Gavin, the creative mind behind the logo, and his father Dan Gavin, who leads Addictions Victorious in New Jersey. Their contributions add a personal touch to the episode, making it not only informative but also deeply inspiring. Whether you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights into how faith can be a cornerstone in overcoming addiction.
It's a compelling listen for anyone interested in the intersection of spirituality and recovery.
