Ever thought about how ancient prophecies can offer hope today? In this heartfelt episode of 'The Addiction Connection Podcast', Dr. Mark E. Shaw and Shirley Crowder take listeners on a journey through their new book, 'Advent Meditations for Addicts'. Shirley, who was born in a mission guest house under a mango tree in Nigeria, brings her passion for disciple-making and her role as Vice-President of The Addiction Connection to the table.
Together, they explore the deep connections between Old Testament prophecies and their New Testament fulfillments, showing how these ancient promises can bring hope to those struggling with addiction today. They dive into the comforting words of Psalm 34:18, which assures that God's nearness offers hope to the crushed in spirit. The episode doesn’t shy away from the tough topics either, addressing addiction as a disease and presenting a faith-based perspective on finding true hope and peace in Jesus Christ.
Perfect for anyone looking to deepen their faith or seeking solace during the Advent season, this conversation is a reminder that even in our darkest moments, there is always hope.
