The solution is profoundly simple. We need help from outside of ourselves. We need a source of help that is trustworthy and effective, and we need help from a source with more power than we have. Where will we find a match for those requirements? It couldn't be Jesus could it?
What keeps us stuck in the cycle of addiction, even when we desperately want to break free? Pastor Jim Nihiser tackles this tough question in the second episode of 'Joyful Recovery in Christ'. With his deep understanding of both faith and recovery, Pastor Jim sheds light on why relapse happens and how we can find a way out. He emphasizes that the journey begins with admitting our powerlessness over addiction. It's a humbling step, but a crucial one.
When we relapse, it often means we're denying this truth and trying to rely on our own strength. But Pastor Jim offers a powerful solution: turning to Jesus Christ for help. By acknowledging our need for God's intervention and prioritizing our relationship with Him, we can find the strength and hope to walk a new path. This episode is a heartfelt call to embrace our vulnerability and seek the divine power that can truly transform our lives.
Whether you're in the throes of addiction or supporting someone who is, Pastor Jim's insights provide a beacon of hope and a practical guide to recovery through faith.
