Finding Faith in Recovery: Insights from Hebrews

Jesus is better, yes, and he certainly is for you and I.
Ever wondered how faith can play a role in overcoming addiction? In this episode of The Addiction Connection Podcast, hosts Dr. Mark E. Shaw, CJ McMurry, and Jim Quigley dive into the book of Hebrews to uncover profound connections between scripture and the journey to sobriety. They kick things off with Hebrews 1:1-4, discussing how these verses reveal God's message of hope and redemption through Christ. But it doesn't stop there.
The hosts tackle tough questions about the leading causes of death among young adults and the mindset around addiction as a disease. Dr. Shaw passionately argues why Jesus offers a better path than substances like alcohol, marijuana, or fentanyl-laced pills. The conversation also delves into the deception of sin and the importance of steadfast faith, drawing from Hebrews chapters 3 and 4.
With personal anecdotes and years of counseling experience, the hosts offer a blend of biblical wisdom and practical advice. Whether you're struggling with addiction or supporting someone who is, this episode provides a heartfelt exploration of how faith can be a cornerstone in the recovery process.
