Recovery and The Gospel

In Elijah Rising’s experience doing intervention and restorative care, we have found that many of the women we’ve encountered have a drug or alcohol addiction in addition to being trafficked. We realized we needed to be able to serve women in recovery from addiction well, so we now have a Recovery Coordinator, Jessica Gobble. In this episode, Jessica and Nick Long, the Founder and Executive Director of Sharpen Recovery, talk to us about the connections between recovery and the redemptive power of the Gospel.
