Just as the thief on the cross was remembered as a hero, we too are remembered and restored by Christ S love and mercy.
Ever wondered how faith can mend the broken pieces of our lives? In this special episode of the 'Recovery Podcast', Chaplain Gary offers a heartfelt glimpse into his work with the Volunteers of America and their Christian enhancement program. With summer vacations and Camp POSTCARD for Youth keeping some staff busy, Gary takes this opportunity to share a touching story from a recent Bible study session with clients.
His reflections delve into the powerful interaction between Jesus and the thief on the cross, emphasizing how being remembered can bring together what has been torn apart by addiction and life's challenges. Gary candidly discusses the issues that often dismember us—betrayal, abuse, abandonment, rebellion, and fear—and how these can be overcome through faith. He also touches on the distractions that keep us from our true purpose and how the Christian enhancement program aims to offer a path to wholeness.
This episode is a treasure trove of wisdom and compassion, perfect for anyone seeking solace and inspiration in their recovery journey. Whether you're struggling with addiction, supporting a loved one, or simply curious about the transformative power of faith, Chaplain Gary's message will resonate deeply. Tune in to hear how remembering and being remembered can be a cornerstone in your path to healing.
