About the Book
"Addictions begin with a choice--but come to trap and define you. These daily devotionals refocus us on the God who can restructure lives and disentangle sinners from enslavement"--Book Synopsis
It begins with a choice . . . but soon that choice overpowers and traps you. You both love and hate your habit, as it begins to define you. Modern approaches to addiction treat it as either a choice we make or a disease we cannot control. But God's Word makes clear that addiction is an inseparable blend of both, teaching us we are sinners both by birth and by choice. The good news? God has a solution for sin and addiction! Here a pastor and counselor with years of ministering to addiction provides day-by-day reminders of truth that motivate you to fight, then helps you to apply that truth to your life. Learn more about your responsibility for addiction, your relationship with the God who can steer you out of it, and techniques for first restructuring your life and then remaining faithful long-term. These daily devotionals will show you that change is possible--because God is in the business of transforming helpless, ensnared sinners.Review Quotes
"I've found that the journey of change is best traveled with a trusted friend. David Dunham has been one of those trusted friends for many over the years and now through this daily devotional he has given us help and hope to encourage you along the path of transformation. This book is not a comprehensive guide to overcoming addiction, for that you will need community, discipleship, and of course the good news of Jesus, but I believe you have found a trustworthy companion for the road. Don't walk alone, please read this book."--Chris Moles, Counselor; Author, The Heart of Domestic Abuse
In the midst of life's difficulties there are certain issues which present a particular challenge to pastors, counselors and family members. Addiction is one of those areas, and thankfully pastor-counselor David Dunham has written a unique and helpful resource for walking with those struggling in addiction. Written with the warmth of a pastor's heart, Dunham's keen expertise in the area of addictions shines through. Carefully balancing a myriad of factors that make up addiction, David plays the part of a wise friend and helper for those who need it most.--Jonathan D. Holmes, Founder and Executive Director, Fieldstone Counseling; Pastor of Counseling, Parkside Church, Chagrin Falls, Ohio; Author, Counsel for Couples: A Biblical and Practical Guide for Marriage Counseling
The writing of my friend, Dave Dunham, impacts me deeply. God has given Dave a tremendous gift in writing succinctly and yet powerfully, keeping the Gospel and God's grace at the center of one of the greatest epidemics in our land - addiction. This new resource will be one that I turn to again and again, as our church family steps into the darkness and despair of addiction, seeking to bring help and hope to those who are often spinning out of control. Dave's book is biblical, practical, hopeful, and focused on our Savior. I highly recommend it.--Brad Bigney, Lead Pastor, Grace Fellowship Church, Florence, Kentucky; Author, Gospel Treason: Betraying the Gospel with Hidden Idols
