In this episode of the Redeemed and Restored podcast, host Mike Noland walks through Steps Eight and Nine of the recovery journey, confronting the truth that words alone cannot heal the damage we’ve done. When sorry isn’t enough, real change requires willingness, truth, and grace put into action. These steps move recovery beyond good intentions and into the hard work of making amends.

Mike explains that Steps Eight and Nine are not about punishment or shame, but about heart transformation. Through biblical truth and personal stories, he shows how owning our wrongs, seeking reconciliation, and inviting others into the process leads to genuine healing. At the center of it all is the gospel. Jesus doesn’t just forgive us. He restores us. Because Christ has reconciled us to God through the cross, we are now empowered to pursue reconciliation with others.

This episode reminds us that true freedom is found in honesty, humility, and obedience, and that lasting healing flows from the grace of Jesus, who makes restoration possible.
