Confessions of a Christian Alcoholic: A Candid Conversation on Drinking, Addiction, and How to Break Free

There’s hope for alcoholics who become Christians--and for Christians who become alcoholics

- Learn what alcoholism really looks like
- Discover how to break free from destructive habits and shame
- Embrace the freedom that comes from radical honesty and vulnerability


While the Christian community loves stories of salvation, it struggles with stories of sanctification--the often-messy journey of becoming like Jesus. As a result, many Christians who stumble are mired in shame, especially when it comes to one of society’s biggest post-Covid obsessions: alcohol. But there is hope for those willing to rethink their drinking.

In Confessions of a Christian Alcoholic, Jonathon M. Seidl vividly tells his own story of disordered drinking. Not only does he address the roots of addiction, trauma, and the often-overlooked reality that Christians aren’t immune to sin struggles, he also reframes the term alcoholic and shares the practical yet spiritual four-step process he used to break free--a process readers will find helpful for working through many of life’s struggles.

Written in an engaging, conversational style, Confessions shows that there’s hope for Christians who become alcoholics, not just for alcoholics who become Christians.
