Shaw, CJ McMurry, and Jim Quigley take on the challenge of celebrating without alcohol. They kick things off with a powerful verse from Proverbs: 'Wine is a mocker, strong drink a brawler, and whoever is led astray by it is not wise'.
This sets the stage for a candid discussion about the risks associated with alcohol, including heart-wrenching stories of lives lost to drunk driving. The hosts dive deep into their own experiences of celebrating sober, emphasizing that true joy comes from recognizing God's grace rather than personal accomplishments or material possessions.
