Breaking the Chains: Max Ingram on Tackling Addiction and Cravings
Our obsession for drugs and alcohol have taken away so many of the things that we've had. But we decided to stick around long enough, and we encourage you to do the same, to find out from the ones who went before us.
What if the key to breaking free from addiction lies in understanding the difference between obsession and craving? In this episode of Studio RC, Pastor Max Ingram shares his profound insights on these two powerful forces. He explains that while obsession is the mental preoccupation leading up to using substances, craving takes over once the substance is used, creating a vicious cycle that's hard to break.
Max passionately discusses how he believes only God's grace can truly remove these destructive patterns. He also dives into the concept of addiction as a form of enslavement to one's desires and how faith can offer a pathway to freedom. With personal anecdotes and wisdom from the Recovery Church Movement, Max emphasizes the importance of learning from those who have walked the path before us.
This episode is a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with addiction or supporting a loved one through recovery.
