Join Reno Collier on Alive & Sober as he shares an honest look at the journey of recovery, transformation, and faith. In this episode, Reno opens up about the daily process of change, emphasizing that transformation isn’t a one-time event but a step-by-step journey. Drawing from Romans 12:2, “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind,” Reno reflects on how he once chased quick fixes and worldly approval, only to find emptiness. He discusses the importance of breaking free from old patterns and allowing God to shape us into something new. Reno encourages listeners to call on Jesus, lead with love, and serve others—whether it’s another alcoholic, addict, or anyone in need. He likens personal growth to chiseling away at a statue, reminding us that real change takes time, humility, and daily effort.
