Here is a great new resource for those struggling with addiction. It is a devotional book focused on love and specifically written for addicts. Mark Shaw and Shirley Crowder always put out great resources. Check it out.

We are excited to announce the 3rd devotional in the series "Meditations for Addicts"! You guys had some good guesses for the topic! Snag your free copy of this new release (and $150 value of other awesome books!) when you attend TAC Summit 2025 in Cincinnati, OH here in a few weeks.

"LOVE: Meditations for Addicts" - by Shirley Crowder & Mark E. Shaw
Addiction can make it difficult to grasp the depth of God's love. As you learn to turn from destructive patterns and trust in His provision, it can be hard to believe that lasting change is possible. As the authors of this devotional, we want you to come to know and embrace the incredible love God offers to everyone— including those caught in addiction. We ask the Lord to use these meditations to draw your heart and mind toward His truth each day. Our prayer is that through the sound biblical teaching and the rich theology of classic hymns, you will be reminded of who Jesus is, what He has done, what He is doing now, and what He promises to do in your life.

At West Park Biblical Counseling Ministry, we believe God’s Word is sufficient for every need.

That is why I wrote Pastor, You Must Be a Counselor, a practical and Scripture-filled guide that calls pastors to embrace the vital work of biblical counseling.

This book equips pastors to shepherd their people through struggles such as anxiety, addiction, marital conflict, grief, and more. Counseling is not optional. It is part of a pastor’s calling to care for God’s flock.

We were honored to be featured today at the national conference of the Fellowship of Biblical Counselors.

It means there is a place right here in Ozark where you can receive biblical counseling that is skilled, confidential, and filled with hope. It also means future counselors are being trained and sent out from a ministry grounded in the truth of Scripture.

You’re not alone. And you’re not beyond help.

At West Park Biblical Counseling, we meet people in the real struggles of life—grief, anxiety, addiction, anger, broken relationships—and we open the Word of God together. Not for quick fixes, but for lasting hope.

We believe the Bible is not just true—it’s enough.
Enough to comfort the hurting.
Enough to confront what’s wrong.
Enough to point us to Christ.

I didn’t realize The Addiction Connection had put this out on their YouTube page. However, as the video says if you are a biblical counselor, pastor, or Christian wanting to serve people struggling with addiction issues I would recommend the resources and training at The Addiction Connection.
