The Healing Power of Confession: A Path to Recovery

Episode Overview

  • Confession is essential for healing and recovery.
  • Keeping secrets fuels guilt, shame, and a slow decline.
  • Admitting wrongdoings opens the door to God's forgiveness.
  • Biblical stories, like King David's, show that no sin is too great to be forgiven.
  • Support and community are crucial in the journey to recovery.
Confession is telling on ourselves. Confession is asking God to change our heart and restore us to wholeness
In this episode of 'Christians with Secret Addictions', Terry Hanna dives into the sixth law of recovery: confession. With over three decades of personal recovery, Terry shares his journey from a life of hidden addictions to one of healing and freedom through the grace of God. He highlights the importance of confession in the recovery process, emphasising that keeping secrets only fuels guilt and shame, ultimately leading to a slow, painful decline.
Drawing from biblical teachings, Terry explains how admitting one's wrongdoings and seeking God's forgiveness can pave the way for true healing and transformation. He recounts the story of King David's confession after his grave sins, demonstrating that no sin is too great to be forgiven by a compassionate and merciful God. Terry encourages those struggling with addiction to come out of hiding, tell on themselves, and embrace the support available through faith and community.
This episode is a heartfelt reminder that confession is not just about admitting faults but about opening the door to a new life filled with hope and recovery. Don't miss this powerful discussion that could change your life or the life of someone you love.
