Teach me, O God, to know how the flesh can be conquered and its power broken. In the death of Your beloved Son, our old nature has been crucified. May I consider and realize that the old nature is to be kept in the place of death. I yield myself to the leading and rule of Your Holy Spirit. I believe that Christ is my life through the Spirit. An entirely new life works within me. And this makes all the difference. Father, by faith I give up all to Your Spirit.

I am a Christian in recovery following four decades of active addiction. I have a B.S. in Psychology and an M.A. in Theological Studies from Colorado Christian University, and I will be pursuing an M.A. in Divinity at Denver Seminary in May 2021. My focus is on evangelism and apologetics, doctrinal studies, and working with individuals struggling with mental health and substance abuse issues. To me, there is no "higher power" than Jesus Christ, who broke the chain of addiction in my life. I will be seeking a position as a prison chaplain and/an associate or teaching pastor upon completing my MDiv. I am currently looking for a position at a drug and alcohol rehab, where I intend to work during the three-year master's program at Denver Seminary. I believe in the power in the Name of Jesus to break every chain. I believe counseling must include discipline, and discipling must include counseling. View all posts by The Accidental Poet
