The Bible has a lot to say about alcohol—and it might not be exactly what you think. From verses celebrating it as a blessing to stark warnings against reckless living, scripture doesn't shy away from this complex and culturally charged topic.
In this message from the "Under Construction" sermon series, we take an honest, balanced look at how to build our lives on wisdom rather than foolishness when it comes to alcohol. Beginning with a moving testimony from Aubrey about finding life-giving freedom after addiction, Pastor Steve Musto explores the tension between biblical liberty and scriptural warning.
What you’ll discover in this episode:
The Two Sides of the Coin: How the Bible portrays alcohol as both a potential blessing for celebration and a dangerous trap for reckless living.
Abstain vs. Partake: Breaking down the two primary scriptural responses to alcohol and understanding how personal conviction works within Christian freedom.
The Heart of the Matter: Why God is just as concerned with why we turn to a drink as He is with how much we drink.
Identifying the "Yellow Flags": Practical, honest warning signs to help evaluate whether alcohol is starting to master your habits, your heart, or your home.
Tune in to discover how to navigate culture, personal conviction, and spiritual maturity with wisdom, guardrails, and grace.
