Ever wondered why faith is such a powerful force in the journey of recovery? In this episode of 'How it Happens with Colin Cook', Colin takes a deep dive into Romans 9:30-33, exploring the profound idea that we are pursued by righteousness, rather than pursuing it ourselves. Colin explains how this passage illuminates the contrast between faith and the law, emphasising that true righteousness comes from trusting in God's mercy rather than our own abilities.
He argues that our successes are infrequent and failures frequent, but faith in God's faithfulness offers great hope. Through personal anecdotes and biblical insights, Colin highlights the paradox of Jesus as both a sanctuary and a stumbling stone. This episode challenges you to reflect on the nature of salvation and the daily struggle of relying on faith.
Colin's candid discussion is both thought-provoking and comforting, reminding you that it's okay to feel offended by the idea of salvation—it’s part of the journey. Tune in to discover how these timeless biblical truths can help you navigate the ups and downs of life and recovery. Don't miss out on this eye-opening exploration that promises to leave you with a renewed sense of hope and faith.
