This episode is a refreshing take on the power of transformation, both spiritually and in recovery. Pastor Max kicks off with a cheerful New Year’s greeting and dives into the theme of transformation, emphasising the importance of embracing a resurrected life.
He uses engaging metaphors like fireworks versus a controlled burn to illustrate the lasting impact of sustained spiritual growth over fleeting moments of change.

These steps, he explains, help individuals grow continuously in their faith and recovery, moving beyond mere maintenance to genuine transformation. Quoting scriptures such as 2 Corinthians 5:17, Pastor Max underscores that becoming a new person in Christ means leaving behind the old life and embracing a new one. He candidly talks about his own experience of feeling like a completely new person after removing drugs and alcohol from his life.
This transformation, he says, is both an event and a process—an ongoing journey of becoming more like Christ. The episode is filled with practical advice and spiritual wisdom, encouraging listeners to explore new passions and hobbies that align with their faith. Pastor Max also highlights the importance of prayer as a tool for transformation, stating that being in God's presence fundamentally changes who we are and what we do.
