Ian Cron Explains How the 12 Steps Aren't Only for Alcoholics

In this episode, Mike Glenn sits down with author and pastor Ian Cron - not to talk personality, but to talk recovery and discipleship. Ian shares his journey from early sobriety to a later prescription-drug relapse, and why the 12 Steps are “the gospel in compression.” They dig into shadow work, the gift of powerlessness, and the daily practices gratitude, inventory, amends, surrender, that keep us grounded in grace. You’ll hear why some of the deepest miracles happen in the church basement, and how pastors and leaders can pursue honest, humble formation that lasts.
