So much of the messaging in the addiction treatment world is geared toward a combination of steps and human efforts to stop the drinking and drug use.
At The Addiction Connection, we aim higher, because we know human efforts alone ultimately fail.
That’s why we created VICTORY FOR THE HEART OF ADDICTION.
This is a fully-online curriculum/course to help people in any addiction struggle focus on deeper heart desires and engage with the biblical approach. These videos have a clear message of hope that’s only found in Jesus!
Course Highlights:
- Hear the truth about addiction in love and compassion from Dr. Mark E. Shaw in his signature, Gospel-centered, gracious, and kind manner.
- Understand why traditional works-based or step-based programs trick you into believing falsehoods that cause failure, and how you can overcome them.
- Learn the biblical foundations of addictive desires and gain the tools needed to fight them effectively.
- Embrace a vibrant new life in Christ by walking daily with Him, allowing the Holy Spirit to guide you for God’s purposes and His glory.
- Discover practical, biblical strategies for breaking free from sin, renewing your mind, and embracing righteousness through the power of the Holy Spirit.
