In this episode of 'How it Happens with Colin Cook', Colin tackles the complex relationship between our inherent sin condition and the emotional wounds from our past. If you're grappling with addiction, anxiety, or depression, this episode might just offer the perspective you need. Colin explains how our sin condition—stemming from the fallen state of Adam—differs from the emotional wounds inflicted during childhood, like abuse or constant criticism.
He emphasises that these emotional wounds often lead us to seek escapes, whether through substances or other addictions. Colin shares practical advice on separating these two factors by faith and bringing painful memories to God without guilt or shame. His reflections are grounded in the Gospel of Christ, aiming to help you intercept your addiction and heal emotionally.
By understanding that our emotional pain is separate from our sin condition, we can begin to address and diminish its power over us. This episode is a heartfelt guide for anyone seeking to reconcile their faith with their emotional struggles. Tune in to gain a fresh perspective on your journey to recovery.
