Ever wondered if faith is a choice or a divine gift? In this episode of 'How it Happens with Colin Cook', Colin dives into the intricate relationship between faith and grace as described in the Book of Romans. Using Romans 11:20 and 11:23 as a foundation, he tackles the age-old debate about whether faith is a human effort or a divine gift.
Colin argues that faith, much like grace, is bestowed by God, making it possible for anyone to be saved, regardless of their past actions or current struggles. He eloquently explains that while it might seem like faith is something we must muster on our own, it's actually a divine act from God that enables us to believe and be justified.
This perspective can be incredibly comforting for those grappling with addiction, as it shifts the burden from human effort to divine intervention. Colin also shares practical advice on how to pray with this understanding, transforming anxious prayers into ones filled with peace and assurance. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by your struggles or doubted your ability to maintain sobriety, this episode offers a fresh perspective that might just be the encouragement you need.
