It really is giving up and saying: God, I surrender to you and I'm going to submit myself to you and ask your spirit to empower me to be transformed day by day.
What if everything you thought you knew about addiction was turned on its head? In this episode of 'The Addiction Connection Podcast', Dr. Mark Shaw and Jim Quigley dive deep into the myths surrounding addiction, using Dr. Lance Dodes' book, 'The Heart of Addiction', as their guide. They don't just scratch the surface; they dig into the heart of what it means to surrender, the misconceptions around willpower, and the secular versus biblical views on self-help and higher powers.
With references to Proverbs 3:5-8, the hosts break down complex ideas in a way that's both enlightening and accessible. Ever wondered if counting your days of sobriety does more harm than good? Or if the chip system is truly beneficial? Dr. Shaw and Quigley tackle these questions head-on, offering a fresh perspective grounded in faith. This episode isn't just about debunking myths; it's about transforming lives through the power of the Gospel.
Whether you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone who is, this episode offers invaluable insights that could change how you view addiction and recovery.
