Join Todd and Mike as they review negative and failed coping skills and introduce positive and successful coping skills. God has designed man to cope with life's challenges that often lead to addiction or enhance our addiction.  Healthy coping skills begins with preparation. If we are not preparing for the battles ahead each day, then we will fail to cope with life's challenges on a successful level.

Todd and Mike discuss coping mechanisms. We often develop poor coping skills early in life. Poor coping skills tend to drive us toward more poor coping skills. When our attempts to cope with life's challenges fail, the spiral downward begins.  Join Todd and Mike on this episode as they drill down and help make us aware of what some of these poor coping skills look like.

Join Todd and Mike as they discuss the three big reasons for this podcast. 1) Encourage and guide pastors, parents, and other loved ones of the addict. 2) Empower the addicted to overcome and find victory. 3) Build community and relationships.
