Freedom Through Faith: Overcoming Addiction to Fantasy and Escapism

📖 Introduction

Welcome to this 21-day Bible study on overcoming addiction to fantasy and escapism. In our fast-paced and often overwhelming world, many find themselves retreating into imagined realities or distractions — whether through daydreaming, technology, or unhealthy habits — to escape pain, anxiety, or dissatisfaction. Such escapism offers a temporary refuge but ultimately can deepen feelings of isolation and despair.

However, God invites us into a freedom that no fantasy can provide. This freedom is found in the hope, peace, and strength that come from a relationship with Him. Over the next three weeks, we’ll journey together through Scripture to understand the nature of addiction to fantasy and escapism, identify God’s truth and power to break these chains, and cultivate spiritual practices that root us in reality, anchored by God's promises.

Each day provides a focused passage, a devotional to challenge and encourage you, reflection questions to deepen your awareness, journaling prompts to capture your journey, and a prayer to invite God's presence into your healing process. Remember, overcoming addiction is a process filled with grace, patience, and divine empowerment.

Be encouraged as you trade imagined relief for real hope — the hope that only God can provide. 🌿✨
