Faith vs. Addiction: Understanding Unbelief with Dr. Mark E. Shaw

The Bible never teaches you to trust yourself. You have to believe God and trust in him, even when you can't see him, even when the circumstances are hard.
Ever wondered if there's a deeper spiritual issue at the heart of addiction? In this episode of 'The Addiction Connection Podcast', Dr. Mark E. Shaw, along with co-hosts CJ McMurry and Jim Quigley, tackles the profound question: Is addiction rooted in unbelief? Drawing wisdom from Proverbs 3:5 and Hebrews 3:13, they discuss how trusting in oneself rather than in God can lead to destructive behaviors.
They also delve into how unbelief can block a fulfilling relationship with God, and the crucial role of community support in the recovery journey. This episode isn't just about sobriety; it's about finding hope and strength through faith. If you're struggling with addiction or know someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights into how faith can be a powerful tool for overcoming life's toughest battles.
