Faith, Recovery, and Community: A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Steve Smith

As Christians we have the way out of pain. So all these things are important and I totally agree with the community aspect.
What happens when faith meets recovery? In this episode of 'This Is My Story, This Is My Song', Steph Macleod sits down with Dr. Steve Smith, a GP specialist in substance misuse and the brains behind the Keys Community Detox project. The two dive deep into the intertwined paths of addiction recovery and spirituality, offering listeners a blend of medical insight and heartfelt faith. Dr. Steve shares his journey and expertise, highlighting the power of community in overcoming addiction.
They chat about the science behind detox, the benefits of Christian meditation, and the healing practice of daily prayer. Steph and Dr. Steve also discuss how non-medical church members can play a crucial role in supporting those battling addiction. It's an episode brimming with hope, practical advice, and a reminder that faith can be a powerful ally in the fight against addiction.
Whether you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone who is, this conversation offers a fresh perspective on the importance of community and self-care.
