Redeemed & Restored
Welcome to the Redeemed and Restored Podcast, a powerful journey of hope, transformation, and faith. Host Michael Noland shares the raw and unfiltered story of his own battle with addiction, which spanned over 30 years from the age of 12. Through his personal testimony of struggle, pain, and ultimate victory, he offers listeners a beacon of hope and proof that radical change is possible—no matter how impossible the circumstances may seem.

Above all, Redeemed and Restored aims to inspire and encourage listeners, showing them that no matter how deep their struggle or how far they’ve fallen, change is possible.

Episode 33: Am I ready to Change or Not?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of the Redeemed and Restored Podcast, host Michael Noland goes beyond confession and confronts the real question: Am I ready to change or not? Walking through Steps 6 and 7 of recovery, we explore biblical repentance not as feeling sorry, but as a complete change of heart and direction. Drawing from Scripture, the original meaning of repentance, and a raw personal testimony, this episode challenges the lie that addiction is something we are powerless to change without accountability. Repentance is the turning point where willingness meets surrender, and where God does what we cannot do ourselves. If you’re tired of repeating the same cycles and ready for real transformation, this episode is an honest call to turn, return to God, and experience the power of the gospel to truly change your life.
