Power in the Word with Brett Knight

Join Kosta and his guest: Brett Knight, criminal defense attorney, pastor and author of From the Gavel to Grace: Setting People Free From Addiction and Into Healing. In this episode: The symptoms of addiction begin long before the actual addiction. We’ve hosted many guests in and around the recovery community, and the throughline is: there’s always more to the story. What do you hope readers will learn about the complexity of both addiction and recovery? One of the central themes of From the Gavel to Grace is that punishment alone fails. Alternatively, compassion without structure collapses. Accountability and mercy aren't opposites. As an attorney and pastor, what do you wish more people understood about what it actually takes to change behavior? The book speaks to three very different audiences: families, the legal system, and the faith community. Did you find the message had to evolve depending on who you were writing to, or is the core the same for all three?Find out more about Brett Knight:https://brettknight.com/Purchase From the Gavel to Grace: Setting People Free From Addiction and into Healing on Amazon:https://amzn.to/4ahC5WWBetter Together with Kosta Yepifantsev is a product of Morgan Franklin Media and recorded in Cookeville, TN.This episode of Better Together with Kosta Yepifantsev is made possible by our partners at Miss Sallie's Market.Find out more about Miss Sallie's Market:https://www.misssallies.com
