Castimonia Purity Podcast Episode 115 – Theology as Recovery

On the Purity Podcast today, Chris discusses theology as recovery with Mike. Mike is a regular recovery guy like you and me. He approached me with this topic as a result of his growth in recovery when he discovered that while books on recovery are fantastic and help change our behavior, we are missing out if we don’t study the word of God to see heart change take place. In addition to the book Chris mentions, The Good and Beautiful God, by James Bryan Smith, here are some resources mentioned in today’s podcast.

  • Desiring God by John Piper (all books available digitally at https://www.desiringGod.org)
  • The Reason for God by Tim Keller
  • Counterfeit Gods by Tim Keller
  • Daily Doctrine by Kevin DeYoung
  • The Expulsive Power of a New Affection by Thomas Chalmers
