Love never gives up, never loses faith. His love moves him to weep with those that weep to heal the broken and the hurting. It's not on accident, it's not an oversight, it was intentional. He healed them on purpose to demonstrate his scandalous love.
Ever thought about how faith and science can come together to help you overcome addiction? In this episode of 'Relational Recovery', hosted by The Refuge Ministry, the conversation kicks off with a poignant reading from the New Testament. The story of a sinful woman who trusts Christ sets the stage for a deep dive into how Christian spirituality and psychological wisdom can guide you through recovery.
The hosts also delve into Luke's gospel, where Jesus speaks about renewing the spiritual condition of our hearts. They highlight Ron Mell's book, 'Right with God', emphasizing the importance of obeying and trusting God's commands. The episode doesn't just stick to biblical texts; it also shares real-life stories that illustrate these teachings. For instance, there's a moving account of a man who loaned money to two people, and how Jesus forgave them both, canceling their debts.
This story serves as a metaphor for the forgiveness and healing available to all of us. The hosts also discuss how Jesus healed many people, including Mary Magdalene and Joanna, the wife of Chuza, showcasing the transformative power of faith. But it's not all about ancient texts and stories. The episode wraps up with a heartfelt discussion on love—how it never gives up, never loses faith, and always endures.
The hosts remind us that God does good for even those who don't believe and sees people for who they truly are, not just their potential. They call on listeners to trust in God's commands and follow Jesus as a path to transformation and renewal. If you're looking for a blend of spiritual guidance and practical advice on overcoming addiction, this episode offers a compelling mix.
It's a beautiful reminder that recovery is not just possible but within reach when you combine faith with psychological insights.
