Helping Others Overcome Addictions

How God’s Grace Brings Lasting Freedom


Does Christianity have an answer for addiction? As longtime pastor Mike Quarles’s alcoholism worsened over eight years, churches and Christians referred him to treatment, 12-Step programs, therapy…nothing worked. Steve McVey, also a pastor, repeatedly dished out the same advice Mike received, with similarly poor results…

…Until, in their frustration, God led them back to basic, addiction-breaking truths of His Word. The authors explain these for readers who want to help someone or who struggle themselves, because freedom from addiction is found only when Christians

  • fully believe what God says about their identity
  • move beyond the 12-Step concept of inescapable “addict identity”
  • stop harboring unforgiveness, get radically right with God, and dwell in who they are in Christ, which excludes engaging in addictive behaviors as a lifestyle

Material on codependency is included, as is information on implementing recovery/support groups for those leaving addiction and starting to live in God’s glorious freedom.

A Word from the Author


“God has provided an answer for addiction. And it has been given to every believer—freedom in Christ (Galatians 5:1). Many believers do not believe they are dead to sin and freed from it (Romans 6:6-7), and are working so hard to get free, but end up digging a deeper hole for themselves. If you, or a loved one, has struggled with addiction, we have presented God’s clear, complete, and only answer for addiction that surprisingly enough you already possess.”
Mike Quarles, author of Helping Others Overcome Addictions
