Addiction touches millions of families every day, and the heartache and brokenness that comes with it can feel overwhelming. Real, lasting freedom is possible. But it doesn't come from just stopping the behavior. Healing happens when we uncover and address the pain, lies, and emotions underneath it all.
In this episode of the Everyday Disciple Podcast, I sit down with author Todd Wermers to talk about moving from addiction to freedom. We get into the emotions God created in us that can actually lead us toward destructive patterns, how the Gospel truly rewrites our stories, and why you absolutely cannot do this alone. Community isn't optional—it's essential.
In This Episode You’ll Learn:
- The 8 core emotions we all experience and why they matter in addiction recovery - How good feelings God gave us can become doorways to destructive patterns - Why the Gospel doesn't just change our behavior—it rewrites our entire story - Why isolation keeps us trapped and community sets us free
