Devotional

Clean but Miserable: Why Sobriety Alone Isn’t Enough

with Justin Franich

ABOUT THIS EPISODE

I got clean from pain pills, meth, and cocaine but still felt miserable. I walked away from the drugs, but I didn't walk into freedom right away. I had a Bible college degree and still lived like God was grading me every day. Righteousness doesn't come from effort. It comes from Jesus. The first year of real freedom is learning how to live consistent with Christ instead of living scared of Him. Sobriety isn't the finish line. Jesus is.
