Recovery Through Christ

"Overcomers are not born; they are forged through surrender."

In this powerful episode of Recovery Through Christ, Pastor Jon Alworth sits down for an intimate, eye-opening conversation with a man who has spent the last two years running the soundboards behind the scenes: his own show producer, Steven Kay.

For decades, Steven lived a highly successful public life in Christian radio—while privately harboring a dark, heavy secret. Moving away from the label of "addict" and exposing the subtle traps of a "drug abuser," Steven opens up about:

• The Power of Choice: How the enemy uses subtle whispers and toxic relationships to lure us back into old, destructive patterns.

• The Trap of the Double Life: The exhausting reality of hiding behind hypocrisy and the shame that keeps so many from seeking help.

• The Difference Between Sobriety and Deliverance: How Steven transitioned from simply "choosing not to sin" to experiencing the true, supernatural peace of Christ that removes the desire altogether.

Tune in to hear a raw, honest testimony of how God never stops chasing us down, proving that no matter how deep into the darkness we run, His grace is always fast enough to catch us.

"There is not one time that I didn't come out of that prison more blessed than I ever blessed them." — Pastor John Hammond

What happens when true deliverance replaces the miserable struggle of "white-knuckling" your way through life? In this episode of Recovery Through Christ, Pastor John Alworth sits down with his close friend and ministry partner, Pastor John Hammond of Hope for All in Jesus Prison Ministry.

Celebrating an incredible 44 years of taking the Gospel behind bars, Pastor Hammond shares jaw-dropping testimonies of how God is moving in Texas prisons.

They discuss how a genuine relationship with Jesus completely transforms a person's community, lowering the historical 90% recidivism rate down to 43% by giving former inmates a built-in family of believers. Whether you are looking to break your own chains of addiction, seeking a Christian approach to legal counsel, or feeling called to volunteer your time to step into the darkness and bring others into His marvelous light—this episode is an urgent reminder that true abundance is found in Kingdom work.

"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.

"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.

"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!

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.

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.

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.

In this powerful episode of Recovery Through Christ, Pastor John Alworth from the KKHT Studios delivers an urgent, "right now" message for anyone struggling with addiction, shame, or the heavy burdens of a fallen world. Reflecting on a prophetic 1965 broadcast by Paul Harvey and the rapid shift in modern culture, Pastor Alworth exposes how easily we can wander into isolation and destructive behavior.

Drawing from his own profound story of breaking a multi-generational cycle of alcoholism at age 53, he extends a lifeline of hope, reminding listeners that it is never too late for a "living resurrection." Whether you are battling the global pandemic of substance abuse—from fentanyl to alcohol—or fighting internal wars with pride and anxiety, this episode maps out a clear path to true healing.

In this live broadcast from April 8th, Pastor John Alworth shifts the focus of recovery from mere abstinence to the necessity of a personal relationship with the Creator. Drawing a parallel to "Gallery Furniture's" famous slogan, Alworth emphasizes that God’s plan for healing is "free, free, free," provided one is willing to engage in a reciprocal bond of love.

The episode outlines the dynamics of the man-God relationship through several key perspectives:

• God’s Initiating Love: Alworth explains that God’s love is "initiating" and "sacrificial." Using the imagery of the Garden of Eden, he notes that when humanity hid in sin, it was God who came looking for them, asking, "Where are you?" He highlights that Christ’s sacrifice on the cross occurred while we were still sinners, proving that God loves individuals into transformation rather than waiting for them to clean themselves up first.

• The Two-Way Street of Love: A healthy relationship cannot be one-sided. Alworth challenges listeners to move beyond "knocking" and actually open the door to Christ (Revelation 3:20). He defines loving God back through obedience—not as a rigid set of rules, but as a path to clearing the "chaos" of a sinful lifestyle—and through trusting His plan over personal preferences.

• The Biological Benefit of Worship: Alworth introduces the concept of neuroplasticity, specifically how worship affects the brain. He explains that acts of devotion and creative praise cause "dendrites" (the connectors between neurons) to flower and bloom. Remarkably, the area of the brain most improved by this spiritual practice is the center for empathy, which directly impacts the second greatest commandment: loving your neighbor.

• Recovery as Reconciliation: Whether recovering from addiction, pride, or a "divided society," the solution remains the same: reconciliation. Alworth reminds listeners that unforgiveness is a "ball and chain" that only weighs down the person holding the grudge. By forgiving oneself and others, the "bridge" broken in Eden is restored.

The program concludes with an invitation to move past "religion" (a man-made construct) and embrace "relationship"—the intimacy of crying "Abba, Father" to a God who is ready to pick His children up every time they stumble.

Reflection Question

Pastor Alworth mentioned that we often try to "clean ourselves up" before coming to God. Is there an area of your life you've been trying to "fix" on your own before inviting Him into the process?

In this special Holy Week edition of Recovery Through Christ, Pastor John Alworth is joined by Pastor Boyd Harrell, founder of COOL Ministries (Christ Over Our Lives). The episode focuses on the critical mission of prison ministry and the belief that incarcerated individuals possess immense potential to become "powerful warriors in the Kingdom of God" once delivered from the bondage of sin and addiction.

The conversation covers several key themes regarding restoration and reentry:

• The Case for Prison Ministry: Pastor Alworth addresses the stigma surrounding incarcerated individuals, reminding listeners that Jesus himself extended grace to the thief on the cross. He highlights the practical benefits to society, noting that Christ-based intervention can drop recidivism rates from 80% to 40%.

• Pastor Boyd’s Testimony: Pastor Harrell shares his "buck wild" journey from shooting drugs at age 13 to facing 25 years to life during his fourth trip to prison. He describes a radical encounter with God in a Houston jail cell in 1993, which led to a five-year period of deep scriptural study and nearly three decades of freedom and ministry.

• The "COOL" Approach to Reentry: With 27 years in ministry, Pastor Harrell explains how his organization serves 20 prison units through church services and his book, Breaking the Chains. The program uses a 12-step framework rooted in biblical discipleship to help men and women navigate the "scarlet letter" of a criminal record and find a supportive "family of God."

• The Science of Praise: The pastors discuss neuroplasticity, noting that worship and gratitude aren't just spiritual exercises but biological ones that heal the brain, combat depression, and increase empathy.

The episode serves as a call to action for volunteers and donors to support reentry efforts, emphasizing that while the world may see a "convict," God sees a "masterpiece" ready for a living resurrection.

• Key Scriptural References
• Luke 19:10Jesus came to "seek and save the lost."
• 2 Corinthians 5:20Believers as "Christ’s ambassadors" on earth.

In this episode of Recovery Through Christ, Pastor Jon Alworth explores the theme of spiritual and emotional freedom, emphasizing that "not all chains are visible." While many associate bondage strictly with substance abuse, Alworth broadens the definition to include shame, anger, fear, past trauma, and the "bondage of lies" that keep individuals from their full potential.

The message focuses on three primary keys to restoration:

• The Power of Surrender over Willpower: Pastor Alworth argues that true freedom is not achieved through human grit or "trying harder," but is received by surrendering to Jesus Christ and accepting the guidance of the Holy Spirit. He describes the Holy Spirit as the "helper" who provides the discernment and strength necessary to navigate a modern world filled with ungodly distractions.

• The Science of Worship: Drawing on the concept of neuroplasticity, Pastor Alworth explains how sinful patterns and addiction physically affect the brain's dendrites. He notes that scientific testing suggests creative activities and, most significantly, worshiping God can help the brain "flower" and heal, restoring a sound mind and the capacity for empathy.

• Living Out the Freedom: Freedom is a daily walk, not a one-time event. Pastor Alworth encourages listeners to "stay tethered" to Christ by joining community groups, volunteering, and replacing isolation with the light of fellowship. He highlights that while the enemy (Satan) uses deception to convince people they are beyond saving, the truth found in the Bible proves that God uses imperfect, "broken" people—like Paul, Moses, and David—for His greatest works.

The program concludes with a powerful reminder of God’s restorative power, with Pastor Jon Alworth sharing his own testimony of being set free at age 53 and having his health, marriage, and career restored through his relationship with Christ.

• Key Scriptural References
• Luke 4:18-19Christ’s mission to heal the brokenhearted and set captives free.
• John 8:32-36Knowing the truth to be "free indeed."
• 2 Timothy 1:7Trading the spirit of fear for power, love, and a sound mind.
• Galatians 5:1The call to stand firm in the freedom Christ has provided.
• James 5:16The importance of confession and community in the healing process.

In this episode, Pastor Jon Alworth explores the spiritual foundations of overcoming addiction and destructive cycles. Moving beyond simple behavior modification, Pastor Alworth argues that addiction is a "worship disorder" — a misplaced appetite where individuals attempt to fill a spiritual hunger with temporary substances or behaviors that ultimately "leak" and fail to satisfy.

The program synthesizes three core pillars for a successful life in recovery:

• A Biblical Approach to Avoiding Relapse: Pastor Alworth emphasizes starving the flesh and feeding the spirit. He details the cycle of addiction—trigger, thought, fantasy, justification, and action — and explains that victory starts before the action is taken by "turning on the light" of Christ to dispel darkness.

• Replacing Desire with Hunger for God: Drawing on the imagery of "broken cisterns" from the Book of Jeremiah, he explains that recovery requires replacing harmful cravings with a hunger for God's "living water," which provides permanent peace rather than temporary escape.

• Understanding Your Purpose: The program concludes by defining the believer's identity as an "Ambassador for Christ" and a "Masterpiece" created for good works. Pastor Alworth encourages listeners to discover their unique spiritual gifts — such as mercy, hospitality, or leadership — to serve others and find true fulfillment.

The message is one of radical hope, reminding all of us that regardless of past relapses or current struggles, we are "new creations" in Christ and that God’s mercies are renewed every morning.
