You're Watching the Wrong Timestamp

Have you ever felt like all the work you're putting into recovery isn't accomplishing anything?The meetings.The prayers.The counseling.The Scripture.The confessions.The ordinary faithfulness.What if you're not failing?What if you're just watching the wrong timestamp?In this episode of You Would Think, I share one of the most powerful illustrations I've ever encountered. A simple woodworking video about transforming an old whiskey barrel into an artisan end-grain butcher block became a vivid picture of addiction recovery, Christian discipleship, sanctification, and God's process of transformation.Sometimes transformation feels like destruction.Sometimes healing feels like being cut apart.But what if the Craftsman already sees something beautiful that you can't yet recognize?If you're tired, discouraged, or wondering whether all the work you're doing is making any difference, I hope this episode encourages you to trust the process and remember that God is never finished with His workmanship.📖 ScriptureEphesians 2:10"For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them."💬 Question for you:Which part of the woodworking process resonated with you the most?
