Step three is kind of like opening a door that's still locked and closed. God drew us in and part of the decision is: God speaks to us and says there's a better way.
Imagine living a life of luxury, only to find yourself on the brink of losing everything you hold dear. That's exactly what happened to Jack, whose story is featured in this compelling episode of 'Real Recovery'. Hosted by Bill Arnold and George Fraser, this episode dives into the transformative power of faith in overcoming addiction.
Kicking off with a discussion on step three of the recovery process—turning your will and life over to God—Bill and George set the stage for Jack's riveting testimony. They liken this step to opening a door that's still locked, emphasizing that with God's guidance, it’s possible to find a new path. Jack's journey is nothing short of remarkable. From a life filled with riches and travel, fueled by alcohol, he nearly lost his marriage and everything he valued.
But through faith, he found sobriety and lasting joy in Jesus. His story serves as a powerful reminder of the seductive nature of alcohol and the dangers of prioritizing material success over meaningful relationships and spiritual well-being. Throughout the episode, the hosts stress the importance of recognizing the need for change and reaching out for help. They describe the process of reframing one's mindset and behavior as daily exercises that require practice and discipline.
This is not just about quitting alcohol; it's about tearing away anything that stands between oneself and God or loved ones. The episode also touches on how alcohol addiction impacts relationships and personal growth, offering valuable insights into the journey of recovery. Jack's inspiring transformation, coupled with Bill and George's empathetic guidance, makes this episode a must-listen for anyone grappling with addiction or seeking inspiration for their own recovery journey.
Tune in to hear Jack's story and discover how faith can be a cornerstone in your path to sobriety, joy, and fulfillment.
