Addiction and the Gospel: An Invitation to Feast

with Lindsay Kimball DeBlaay

Recorded on December 12, 2018

1 hour

W e’re people who are prone to addiction.

Even if we don’t struggle with drugs, alcohol, or porn, we overeat, overspend, overindulge in Netflix and social media.

“I am not being flippant when I say that all of us suffer from addiction. Nor am I reducing the meaning of addiction. I mean in all truth that the psychological, neurological, and spiritual dynamics of full-fledged addiction are actively at work within every human being. — Gerald May, Addiction and Grace

If we recognize the ways in which our hearts are addicted, we can see how that is actually an invitation to a deeper holy feasting and dependence on Jesus.

In this FREE webinar, Lindsay Kimball DeBlaay, the Senior Director of People at Serge and a Licensed Professional Counselor will help you –

  • Understand the cycle of addiction
  • Recognize and pay attention to the deeper hunger that feeds our addictive appetites  and those of the people we love
  • Move toward the holy feasting we were made for
About the Speaker

Lindsay Kimball DeBlaay

Lindsay was first introduced to Serge through a summer internship in Prague in 2008, followed by serving for two years with a church-planting team in Vienna, Austria. Her time on the field formed in her a passion to see missionaries renewed in the gospel in the midst of their labor, and cared for in ways that lead to longevity in ministry. Since 2012, Lindsay has worked in Serge’s Home Office, first as a recruiter and Sonship mentor, followed by serving as Global Learning Leader, Associate Director of Mission, and most recently Member Care Director. Lindsay now serves on the ELT as Senior Director of People, and loves thinking about and planning for how to help our workers and their families grow in resilience and thrive on the front lines. Lindsay earned her MA in counseling at Missio Seminary, and is a licensed professional counselor in the state of Pennsylvania. She lives just outside of Philadelphia with her husband, Matt and their four kids, and enjoys biking, hosting friends, and serving with her local church community.
