The Feeling Better - Gambling Addiction & Spiritual Warfare
Maria is just an average, middle American housewife and homesteader who never gave gambling much thought until she became addicted to slot games last summer. At her lowest point, God showed her that her compulsive gambling addiction, like many other addictions, was a spiritual attack. Maria published her book, "The Feeling Better: 10-4 Program" in March, 2023 and simultaneously launched this podcast. She addresses compulsive gambling and addiction from the spiritual perspective, helping those who are stuck in the dark pit of addiction to defeat the enemy and find victory. Througout her podcast, Maria Simon shares her own devastating journey and what led to her downfall and ultimately, her redemption and recovery. The raw emotion of her ordeal, her inspiring words of wisdom, and the practical, spiritual encouragement laid out each week can help anyone--Christian believer or not--to overcome their compulsive addiction once and for all.

038 - Chapter 5: The Imbalance of Relationships (A Tribute to Matthew Perry)
In this episode, I read from my new book, Imbalances: The Addict's Guide to Fixing Our Broken Lives, Chapter 5--The Imbalance of Relationships. This is also a bit of a tribute episode to actor Matthew Perry from the show "Friends," who battled the spiritual attack of addiction for many, many years. I also share three (actually four) heartbreaking stories of relationships gone bad, and show you the easiest way to love in the way God wants us to. AND, in the way that brings balance to our lives, which in turn prevents spiritual attack.
I mention at one point the video by Pastor Vlad Savchuck about the ten signs you're battling a demon or unclean spirit, of which I had 6 or 7 of them when I was in the depths of my gambling addiction. Click here to watch that YouTube video: https://youtu.be/92Q_Zo3C1DA
