Addictions and Afflictions: Breaking Free from What Controls Us

Fr Varghese Parackal examines the addictions, habits and ordinary attachments that can begin to control us. Drawing on St Paul's refusal to be dominated by anything, he calls Christians to honest self-examination, practical self-control and the freedom to choose Christ above every created thing.

Fr Joby recalls how Jeremiah 1:9 sustained him when he felt unprepared to preach and how 1 John 3:8-9 helped him confront a persistent spiritual weakness. Scripture becomes testimony when it is prayed faithfully in the place of temptation and hardship.
