When Faith Needs a Helping Hand: A Guide for Wives of Alcoholics

Sometimes we're praying for an answer and for a solution, and god sends it right in front of our face, but we don't recognize it as being that, or we don't accept it as being that, or we don't necessarily sometimes want to have to do the work on our side.
Have you ever felt like your faith alone isn't enough to handle your husband's drinking problem? Julie Sanford, the compassionate host of 'Married to Addiction', tackles this very issue in an eye-opening episode. Julie doesn't just talk about faith; she shares her own journey of realizing that sometimes, faith needs a bit of practical help. She opens up about her struggles to be a 'better wife' and how she discovered the importance of setting boundaries and seeking additional support.
Julie dives into different types of alcoholic marriages and emphasizes that while faith is crucial, it's not always sufficient on its own. Sometimes, taking action and using the right tools are necessary steps toward finding the relief you're praying for. She discusses how leaning on God effectively means also recognizing when to seek external help. This episode is a must-listen for any wife grappling with the challenges of a spouse's addiction.
Julie offers a roadmap filled with hope and actionable advice, making it clear that you don't have to navigate this journey alone. Whether you're trying to protect yourself, your relationship, or both, Julie's insights can guide you towards a more balanced and peaceful life.
