Listen "Overcoming Alcoholism"
Episode Synopsis
How can faith in Christ help us overcome the darkest moments in our lives? Join me for an honest and vulnerable conversation with my dear friends, Ben and Lindsey Eenigenburg, as they share their journey of overcoming alcohol addiction. Ben opens up about his personal battle with alcoholism, anxiety, and hiding while Lindsey offers her perspective as a wounded wife struggling with anger and resentment.We discuss the impact of addiction on their marriage, the journey to forgiveness, and the importance of seeking help and opening up about one's struggles. Through their testimonies, we explore the role that prayer and faith played in both Ben and Lindsey's journey to recovery and reconciliation. Their honest conversation serves as a testament to the power of Jesus to sustain and rescue us, even in our darkest moments.So, whether you are personally struggling with addiction or know someone who is, I hope that this conversation offers hope, encouragement, and a reminder that in Christ we are overcomers.EPISODE CHAPTERS(0:00:06) - Intro to the Eenigenburgs(0:05:22) - Alcohol Addiction(0:16:28) - Navigating Marriage and Alcoholism(0:26:46) - Overcoming Addiction and Trauma(0:35:06) - The Journey to Forgiveness(0:40:41) - Rebuilding Marriage(0:46:36) - Reconciliation and Recovery (0:50:55) - From Addiction to Faith(0:57:13) - Advice for Others and Supporting Loved Ones(1:09:53) - Celebrating Sobriety and HealingFOLLOW:InstagramIf you’ve enjoyed this episode, one of the best ways to support the show and make sure others find it, is to subscribe and leave a review.
