The gospel declares to us that Jesus Christ is our righteousness, that Christ took the place of our humanity, and that in him we are counted as if we were righteous.
Ever feel trapped by guilt and addiction? Colin Cook has some thoughts that might just change your perspective. In this episode of 'How it Happens with Colin Cook', Colin dives into the emotional whirlwind that guilt and addiction can create. He unpacks how feelings of helplessness often stem from the power of addiction, leading to a cycle of despair and the crippling belief of 'I can't stop this, I can't get out.'
But it's not all doom and gloom.
Colin brings in the teachings of the Gospel to offer a beacon of hope. He explains how understanding Jesus Christ as our righteousness can help us break free from the shackles of guilt. It's about shifting from a mindset of legalism, which tells us we need to reach divine standards on our own, to one of grace, where we are justified freely by faith. Colin also touches on how legalism can actually hinder recovery, making it harder to overcome addiction.
Instead, embracing faith and the gospel's teachings can provide a powerful tool for intercepting addictive behaviors and thoughts. Whether you're deeply rooted in your faith or just starting your spiritual journey, this episode offers valuable insights into overcoming addiction through spiritual understanding. So, if you're struggling with feelings of guilt and addiction, tune in to hear Colin Cook's take on how faith can be a guiding light in your recovery journey.
