And what you're talking about is walking by faith. We don't fully understand how God, how Jesus, could be fully a man and fully God at the same time. And so I really appreciate what you just shared.
What if your journey through addiction recovery could be guided by the profound messages of Easter? In this episode of The Addiction Connection Podcast, Shirley Crowder and Dr. Shaw dive into their new book, 'EASTER: Meditations for Addicts'. This isn't just another devotional; it's a heartfelt guide that connects the hope of the Gospel with the struggles of addiction.
The book is structured as a daily devotional covering the five Sundays leading up to Easter, each chapter focusing on a unique theme designed to inspire and support those in recovery. Crowder and Dr. Shaw explain how this interactive format encourages readers to deeply engage with the text, fostering personal reflection and growth. One of the most compelling discussions in this episode revolves around the symbol of Easter from Isaiah 9:6.
They explore how this symbol represents God's plan for Jesus, who is both fully man and fully God, and what this means for our salvation. This leads into a deeper conversation about the hypostatic union of Jesus—a concept that underscores the dual nature of Christ and its significance for believers. Throughout the episode, Crowder and Dr. Shaw share personal reflections and experiences, making the discussion relatable and authentic.
Their insights on walking by faith and trusting in God's plan offer a beacon of hope for anyone grappling with addiction. As they wrap up, they hint at the next topic—Jesus' triumphal entry—which promises to be equally enlightening. This episode is not just informative; it's a spiritual journey that invites listeners to explore the transformative power of faith during recovery.
