Balancing Compassion and Codependency in Recovery with Chuck

The hard balls and strikes of the gospel and of the bible aren't necessarily not right because they're difficult.

Drawing from his extensive experience, both personal and professional, Chuck unpacks how our best intentions can sometimes turn into a messy form of 'sloppy compassion'. He explains why accountability is crucial and why love alone might not always be enough to support someone through recovery.
Chuck also tackles the tough choices we face when aligning our recovery journey with spiritual teachings. He shares his thoughts on why the hard truths of the gospel and the Bible are essential, even if they’re tough to swallow. This episode is packed with real talk about the limitations of compassion, the importance of setting boundaries, and the need to be teachable.
Whether you’re on your own path to recovery or supporting someone else, Chuck’s insights offer a fresh perspective on navigating these challenges with faith and practicality.
