267-Freely Sober with Ericka Andersen

Posted by: WCSG | Friday, September 11th, 2026 (12:00am)

Many Christians drink alcohol, but how can we know if we are engaging ”too much”?

What does “too much” mean?

(Is there a “too much”???)

Author and speaker Ericka Andersen has wisdom for us: There isn’t a clear line, rather a lens to look at drinking from the heart. How can we look in our hearts about alcohol?

And how does Ericka know this?

She learned it the hard way: Through her own secret addiction as a mom.

Even her closest people didn’t think she had a problem, but as she looked inward at her heart and outward at the actions it led to, she realized something was wrong. She got help.

How?

Was it in one fell swoop?

Did she ever struggle again?

Let’s talk about it, find encouragement for ourselves, for a friend, or anyone—no matter their struggles.
