In this episode of Recovery Through Christ, Pastor John Alworth shares how a personal relationship with Jesus is the ultimate foundation for healing, restoration, and breaking free from the cycles of addiction and shame.

Pastor Alworth emphasizes the vital role of the Holy Spirit in developing spiritual vision and discernment, reminding believers to test everything against the Word of God.

6/10/2026 "Recognizing Supernatural Opportunities in the Everyday (Part 2)"

"For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them." — Ephesians 2:10

Most people spend their entire lives waiting for a booming voice from heaven, a dramatic Damascus Road encounter, or a spectacular, earth-shaking miracle to prove God is real. But what if God is trying to get your attention right now through the ordinary, chaotic, or even painful circumstances of your life?

In this incredibly transparent episode of Recovery Through Christ, Pastor John Alworth shares what it looks like to tune your spiritual vision to recognize supernatural opportunities. Reflecting on his own past, Pastor John opens up about hitting rock bottom: battling severe health issues, drowning in debt to the IRS, facing isolation, and losing his family. Yet, it was precisely in that cornered moment that God supernaturally intervened through a single, unexpected phone call that changed the trajectory of his life forever.

Highlights From This Episode:


The Living Miracle of Transformation: Why a person walking off the streets, surrendering a decade-long addiction, and gaining a clear mind is the greatest modern-day miracle you will ever see.


The Holy Spirit Nudge: Understanding our role as Christ's ambassadors and co-workers (2 Corinthians 5-6), and how the gift of the Holy Spirit actively guides us through ordinary choices.


Problems vs. Opportunities: How a massive giant like Goliath looked like a death sentence to an army, but a supernatural promotion to a shepherd boy named David.


God’s Multi-Faceted Healing: A powerful look at the different ways God answers prayer—whether through instant divine deliverance, the miracle of medical science, or ultimate eternal healing.

Your current struggle—whether it’s addiction, a fractured marriage, or a financial storm—is not an accident. God hasn't abandoned you; He is inviting you to step onto the water. Stop looking for the spectacular and start looking for the supernatural in your everyday routine.

6/3/2026 "Recognizing Supernatural Opportunities in the Everyday (Part 1)"

"Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.'" — John 14:6

In secular circles, anyone starting recovery is given a foundational piece of advice: you have to change your people, places, and things. But how do you actually do that when the temptations of the world are waiting on every street corner?

In this episode of Recovery Through Christ, Pastor John Alworth calls in from home to share a powerful truth: true, faith-based recovery isn't just about behavior modification—it perfectly mirrors our daily walk with Christ. Long before believers were ever called "Christians," the early church in the Book of Acts was simply known as The Way.

What You'll Learn in This Episode:


The Shortcut Fallacy: Why the enemy offers artificial peace and instant gratification that ultimately leads to slavery (John 8:34), while Christ leads us on a life-giving journey.


Why "Trying Harder" Fails: The biological and spiritual reasons why willpower alone isn't enough to rewire the brain, and why Jesus asks us to abide, not just white-knuckle our way through.


Overcoming the Stumble: A compassionate look at slips and relapses. If a child stumbles while learning to walk, a loving parent lifts them back up—and God does the exact same for you.


The Power of the Pack: Why isolation is the enemy's greatest weapon, and how finding a Bible-based recovery community acts as a "hospital for the wounded."

Whether your struggle is with alcohol, drugs, pride, or trauma, you do not have to walk this narrow path alone. Turn your back on the wide road to destruction, embrace the ultimate victory of total surrender, and let God order your steps toward a brand-new identity.

5/27/2026 "True Transformation Through Surrender"

"Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil." — Ephesians 6:11

Whether you are in the deep throes of addiction, standing on the edge of a slippery slope, or fighting to prevent a relapse, recovery is never just a physical challenge—it is a spiritual battle. The enemy behaves like a roaring lion, using isolation, shame, and self-deception to keep us trapped in darkness. But God has not left us defenseless.

In this powerful live broadcast, Pastor John Alworth breaks down Ephesians 6 to give you a highly practical, step-by-step field manual for recovery. Drawing from his own journey and his work with Break Every Chain ministries, Pastor John translates the ancient Roman armor into daily, real-world tools for modern victory:


The Belt of Truth: Breaking denial and being ruthlessly honest with your family, sponsors, and yourself.


The Breastplate of Righteousness: Guarding your heart against the toxic lies of shame, guilt, and worthlessness.


Feet Shod with the Gospel of Peace: Swapping the chaos of addiction for rock-solid daily routines, healthy friendships, and making amends.


The Shield of Faith & Helmet of Salvation: Deflecting cravings and capturing destructive thoughts before they take root in your mind.


The Sword of the Spirit: Actively deploying the Word of God to slash through the enemy's traps.

Sobriety isn’t merely about white-knuckling your way past a substance; it’s about replacing destructive habits with righteous ones and filling your life with things that strengthen the soul. Tune in to discover how you can stop running from your failures and start running to a Savior who offers absolute freedom. Because whom the Son sets free, is free indeed!

5/20/2026 "Practical Tools for Lasting Recovery"

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. — John 10:10

Are you or a loved one feeling trapped in a cycle of addiction, shame, or destructive behavior? The enemy wants you to believe that substances offer freedom, but they only deliver chains.

In this powerful episode, Pastor John Alworth returns live to share his deeply personal journey of celebrating 67 years of life and over 13 years of true, Christ-centered sobriety. Reflecting on a family history marked by addiction, Pastor John stands as a living testament to the miracle of God’s grace.

He breaks down the practical and biblical reality of what happens when you step out of the darkness and into the light. Sobriety isn’t about what you give up—it's about what you gain: peace, clarity, restored relationships, dignity, and a deeper walk with Jesus Christ. Contrast the heavy burdens of the flesh with the freeing fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5), and discover why lasting freedom only comes when we love God more than our vices.

No matter how many times you’ve fallen or how heavy your chains feel, your past does not disqualify you. Tune in to discover the undeniable joy of a clear mind, a clean heart, and a Savior who is still in the miracle business.

5/13/2026 "From Bondage to Abundant Life"

Why do over 80% of individuals who go through secular 28-day recovery programs relapse within the first year? In the conclusion of this foundational two-part series on Recovery Through Christ, Pastor John Alworth addresses the critical missing link in lasting transformation: a dedicated relationship with Jesus Christ. Broadcasting live to Southeast Texas in 2026, Pastor Alworth breaks down Steps 5 through 12, mapping the traditional recovery timeline directly back to its original scriptural origins.

This episode tackles the massive spiritual hurdles that keep people trapped in cycles of addiction, anxiety, and depression—specifically the heavy chains of unforgiveness and shame. Pastor Alworth shares the immense power of reciprocal forgiveness, the necessity of forgiving yourself, and how real healing occurs when we replace the generic "higher power" with the living Trinity. By examining the book of James and the book of Romans as practical recovery manuals, this broadcast highlights how to renew your mind against the noise of modern culture, step into your calling as an ambassador for Christ, and carry the message of true freedom to a world in bondage.

He shares candidly about the "baloney salami" lies the enemy whispers to keep us in bondage, his own joy in living a sober life, and how to conduct a fearless moral inventory rooted in Scripture rather than condemnation. Whether you are battling a substance or wrestling with the subtle bondages of pride and unforgiveness, this episode offers a practical, grace-filled roadmap to help you step out of the darkness and into marvelous light.
