Whether you're seeking inspiration, struggling with faith, or looking for a story of true redemption, this episode is a must-listen.  Guest: Jessica Morris Jessica Morris is an author, speaker, and advocate for addiction recovery and spiritual transformation. She is the author of Higher Powered: One Woman’s Journey of Personal Eschatology, which explores her path from trauma and addiction to faith and healing. After growing up with an alcoholic, abusive father who was also a minister, Jessica turned away from organized religion and struggled with addiction. Through recovery, seminary studies, and deep self-reflection, she developed the concept of personal eschatology—the idea that true transformation happens when we let go of our old selves and embrace a personal relationship with Jesus. Now, she is on a mission to help others navigate their own journeys of healing and faith. Main Topics: ·         Jessica Morris’ Personal Journey – Overcoming childhood trauma, addiction, and finding faith ·         Personal Eschatology – The idea that true transformation happens when we let go of our old selves and embrace a personal relationship with Jesus ·         The Role of Trauma in Addiction – How unresolved childhood experiences shaped Jessica’s struggles ·         The Power of Recovery – How support systems, counseling, and faith played a role in healing ·         Questioning Faith – How Jessica learned to ask hard questions about God and found deeper spiritual meaning ·         Forgiveness and Healing – The journey to forgiving past wounds and rebuilding relationships ·         The Impact of a Spiritual Mentor – The role of Paul E.
