Stop Blaming God: It's Not His Fault Ep. 15

Welcome to Addicted to God, the podcast for anyone with an addictive personality who’s ready to trade their old struggles for a life-changing love for Jesus. Hosted by Sarah Schneider — a woman who openly shares her own addictive wiring and decade-plus experience mentoring women in her local jail. This show delivers raw, biblical truth with zero shame and zero judgment. Through Scripture, real stories, and practical tools, Sarah helps you break free from substances, screens, approval, pain, shame, and every other thing that’s had a hold on you. The heartbeat of this podcast is Mark 12:30 — loving the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength. Because that desperate, all-or-nothing hunger you’ve carried? God gave you that wiring… you just needed a better addiction. Whether you’re tired of the blame game, fighting hidden battles, or simply craving more of Jesus, you’re in the right place. New episodes drop weekly. In this episode, Sarah tackles the dangerous lies that keep so many stuck — “God gave me this addiction,” “If He loved me, He wouldn’t let me struggle,” and “I can control it.” Discover the ancient roots of the blame game, who’s really behind our destruction, why God allows trials, and the powerful weapons we have in Christ to walk in true freedom.

Healing Church Hurt Ep.14

Church Hurt & Spiritual Disappointment — a heavy but hopeful conversation for anyone who’s ever been wounded by the very place that should have felt safest. In this episode, I open up about the deep pain so many carry from church experiences: judgment, exclusion, gossip, feeling you can’t show up as your real, struggling self, and far more serious wounds like betrayal, abuse of power, or violation by trusted leaders and pastors. I share my own regretful moment of unintentionally making a family with young kids feel unwelcome, and the powerful story of taking a heavily tattooed woman from jail to church—watching fear melt into God’s warm welcome.Whether your hurt is “small” or soul-crushing, this episode is for you. We explore: * Who God is and what He intended His Church to be: a family, the Body and Bride of Christ, a place of healing, belonging, truth, and love. * Why the church can disappoint us so deeply: because it’s made of imperfect, still-being-sanctified people just like us. * How to move forward without regret: separating God from His flawed people, honestly naming our pain to Him, entrusting it to the Righteous Judge, and wisely re-engaging with healthy community. God is not the author of your church hurt. He sees you (El Roi), He grieves with you, and He is ready to heal. You’ll hear Scripture that anchors us—Lamentations 3:22-23, Psalm 27:10, Hebrews 10:24-25, and more—plus a closing prayer, a gentle “Safe Inventory” to journal through, and discussion questions for groups or personal reflection. If you’ve been hurt by the church, this episode is a safe space to begin processing, release bitterness, and take one small step toward trust and belonging again. You are not alone, and your story matters to God. Listen now and let the Lord meet you right where you are.

Darkness to Light: Who & What Owns You? E.12

In this powerful episode of The Addicted to God Podcast, host Sarah Schneider confronts a challenging but liberating question: Who really owns you right now? Drawing from her decade mentoring women in jail, Sarah reveals how addictions—whether substances, shopping, approval, or success—keep us trapped in darkness. She explores how sin is the root that gives addiction its power, how our fallen nature pulls us toward what destroys us, and how the enemy blinds us to the light of Christ. Using powerful Scriptures like John 3:19-20, Romans 6:23, and John 8:44, Sarah unpacks why we hide in shame, how pride and comfort can blind even the religious, and the sobering reality of the sin nature we all battle. But this episode doesn’t leave you in darkness. It points to real hope: the freedom that comes when we transfer our desperate hunger from the things of this world to the only addiction that truly satisfies—Jesus Christ. If you’re tired of hidden struggles controlling your life, this is your invitation to step into the light.

Addiction: Innocent Until It Owns You Ep. 11

Are you tired of feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or controlled by something you can’t seem to break free from? In Episode 11, we confront a powerful truth: Addiction IS Bondage — and we’re all in it in some way.

But the real freedom begins when we recognize the deeper spiritual battle and discover the only One strong enough to break every chain. Through raw stories from women in jail and practical biblical truth, you’ll be encouraged to stop managing your bondage and start transferring your hunger to God — the one healthy addiction that brings lasting freedom. If you’re exhausted, discouraged, or ready for real change, this episode is for you. The truth will set you free.
