My Commitment

 My Commitment To You

Paul Stark

Decades ago, I began an intensive journey into the study of addictions. When you consider the innumerable approaches to addiction today from the medical, psychological, and sociological disciplines, it doesn’t take long to realize that this subject is enormously expansive, complex, and overwhelming.

As someone who once knew the addiction experience, none of these models resonated with my soul. I could not come to grips with the idea that I was an addict with a disease over which I was powerless.

As a redeemed follower of the resurrected Christ, the idea that my troubled and traumatic upbringing was to blame left me feeling helpless. The theory that the world I grew up in was responsible for hopelessly corrupting me seemed an abrogation of personal responsibility before an all-knowing, all-wise, all-powerful God.

Could it be that God has already made provisions for the nightmare of addiction? He has—I should know. The Breaking the Chains Seminar is the result of research at two seminaries, over two decades of helping others find true and lasting freedom from various addictions, and a few years held captive myself.

Let me speak plainly. I’ve been there and done that. So, when I tell you that there are biblical principles that bring true and lasting freedom from addiction, I know what I’m talking about—not merely intellectually, but experientially as well.

Of all that God has given me, and that’s a lot, nothing is more precious to me than my freedom in Christ. You’ve tried everything else, so why not give this biblical approach a chance? If you embrace the principles taught in The Breaking the Chains Seminar, taking them deep into your soul, you will find true and lasting freedom.
