Abstinence and Addiction: A Spiritual Path to Recovery

It is surrender to our lord god, our hearts, our bodies, our minds. It's an invitation to the mercy and the compassion of the blessed trinity himself...
What does it take to truly overcome addiction? In this episode of 'Healing Addictions', Fr. Christophe Lepoutre dives deep into the concept of abstinence as a crucial element in battling addiction. He emphasizes the importance of surrendering one's heart, body, and mind to God to find genuine freedom from addictive behaviors. Fr. Christophe also explores the significance of sexual purity within marriage and the higher standard of purity expected within the Christian community.
By blending the wisdom of the Holy Orthodox Church with traditional 12-step recovery methods, he offers a unique perspective on achieving true healing. This episode is a heartfelt call to seek divine mercy and compassion, stressing that true recovery is more than just abstaining—it's about a spiritual transformation guided by faith. Whether you're struggling with addiction yourself or supporting a loved one, this episode provides valuable insights and encouragement on the journey to recovery.
