Summary

What do you do when you love Jesus with your whole heart — and still can't stop? In this episode, Kim sits down with Jon Seidl — author of Confessions of a Christian Alcoholic and founder of Veritas Recovery — to talk about his journey from faith to alcoholism, and back to the truest freedom he's ever known.


Jon's story is not what you expect. He grew up in the church, loved Jesus, wrote a book on faith and mental health — and slowly became an alcoholic in the process. What he found on the other side isn't just sobriety. It's a life more whole and free than he knew was possible.


This episode is for anyone who has ever struggled with something they couldn't stop — addiction, anxiety, disordered relationships, work, food, or anything else occupying the throne of your heart. As Jon says: anything that is misordered is disordered. And the gospel has something to say about all of it.


What you will hear in this episode:

· Jon's story from rock bottom to redemption

· Why Christians can still struggle

· The difference between sobriety and true freedom

· The four foundational steps to living a fulfilled and flourishing life
