Spirituality is about being connected, and it's both a private and a shared experience.
What happens when faith meets the journey of recovery? In this thought-provoking episode of 'One Hour AT A Time', Mary Woods sits down with Father Thomas Hoare, the president of St. Edmund's Retreat and chaplain for the U.S. Naval Submarine Base in Groton, CT. With decades of experience in both spiritual guidance and addiction recovery, Father Hoare offers a unique perspective on how spirituality can be a cornerstone in the healing process.
He shares his insights on the importance of developing a spiritual life that is rooted in community and a higher power. Father Hoare also warns against the pitfalls of creating a 'god' in our own image and discusses the challenges of forgiveness and self-acceptance. Through heartfelt anecdotes and practical advice, this episode underscores the power of spiritual connection in overcoming addiction.
Whether you're seeking inspiration for your own spiritual journey or practical tips for incorporating faith into your recovery plan, this episode offers valuable insights that you won't want to miss.
