CONNECT WITH ERIC:

Eric Newberry - Chief Abolitionist & Mission Pastor

Organization: Slave Free Bricks

Website: SlaveFreeBricks.com

Mission: Rescuing and restoring 4.5 million people enslaved across Asia

In this episode, Christine Jewell sits down with Eric Newberry, a passionate abolitionist and mission pastor, to unpack the hard truth: we’ve built lives on self-sufficiency, comfort, and control—and it's left us spiritually bankrupt and emotionally exhausted. From surviving suicide and addiction to leading global rescue missions, Eric shares how God called him out of the shadows and into radical obedience. Together, they expose the lies that keep us numbing out, avoiding the hard questions, and living lukewarm lives—and invite you into a deeper, purpose-driven way of leading.

If you’ve been going through the motions, feeling like something’s off or missing, this conversation will call you UP and remind you of who you are and what you’re here for. It’s time to stop living a counterfeit version of life and step into Kingdom legacy.

This Episode Is for You If:

You’ve built success on the outside but feel spiritually dry or disconnected
You’re done numbing out with busy-ness, achievements, or distraction
You’re craving radical clarity on your purpose and calling
You feel a holy discontent and know you’re made for more
You’re ready to stop being the hero of your own story and let God lead
You want to build a legacy that sets others free, not just elevates your name

Key Takeaways:

Numbed-out lives don’t equal freedom.

Addiction isn’t always drugs or alcohol—it can look like busyness, control, or performance. Until we stop numbing, we’ll never feel fully alive.

God can’t bless who we pretend to be.

Breakthrough starts when we bring the real, raw version of ourselves to Him—mess and all. When we stop hiding, He starts moving.

You’re not the source of power—you’re the vessel.

Freedom, joy, and clarity flow when we stop trying to manufacture outcomes and start partnering with God’s timing and power.

Legacy is about multiplication, not image.

True leaders don’t build platforms—they build people. What matters is who you’re setting free and what you’re leaving behind.

Obedience opens doors comfort never will.

The cost of comfort is high—it will rob you of purpose, passion, and legacy. Obedience may be costly, but it leads to wild abundance.

Notable Quotes:

"We don’t need more men and women who know the Bible. We need more who actually live it out."

"I had the titles. I had the success. But I was spiritually empty. And I wanted to end it all."

"God told me: stop trying to do everything in your own power. Let me take over."

"We all want influence, but are we willing to surrender for it?"

"There is no greater legacy than freedom. That’s what we’re called to multiply."

Scripture Referenced:

John 10:10 – "I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full."
Luke 4:18 – “He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind.”
Romans 12:1 – “Offer your bodies as a living sacrifice... this is your true and proper worship.”
