In this episode of the Joyful Health Show, I interview Ericka Anderson about her book Freely Sober: Rethinking Alcohol Through the Lens of Faith. Alcohol is a tricky subject in any Christian circle: how much is too much? Can we drink alcohol intuitively?
Here's what we cover:
The differences between biblical references to alcohol and modern day consumption
Red flags for your own relationship with alcohol
Sober curious: what it is and how to practice it
Our hope is that this conversation would help you reconsider your habits with alcohol and reset your mind to think and drink responsibly. We want you not only to ask yourself "how close to the line can I get?" but rather, "how much life do I want to live?" We want you to be filled with the Holy Spirit and led by Jesus, who gives you life to the full!
"The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly." John 10:10
