Today we’re diving deep into why Jesus was our missing piece (peace) in the journey to true freedom from alcohol and why self-help alone can only take us so far.

We share openly about our own paths, recounting how we once sought relief and connection in alcohol but ultimately found it empty and unfulfilling. Over time, we realized that no amount of worldly solutions could fill the void we were trying to soothe. Instead, we discovered that true peace, joy, and connection come from surrendering to Jesus. Through Him, we found freedom from the shame, anxiety, and constant searching that once defined our lives.

We’re not talking about religious rules or dogma here; we’re talking about a personal relationship that transforms everything. We encourage listeners to start where they are, even if they’re unsure of their faith, and to explore what a journey with Jesus might look like. Whether through reading the Bible, opening up in prayer, or simply having an honest conversation with God, we believe there’s incredible power in inviting Jesus into freedom from alcohol.

Join us as we share the personal stories and transformative experiences that have shown us why Jesus is truly the missing peace. We hope this conversation brings hope, encouragement, and the gentle nudge to explore a path to peace, not in isolation, but in the arms of a Savior who loves us fully.
