Redefining Faith: Joh's Journey to a Personal Higher Power
The program for me is so divinely set up always, and then when I think about how it allows me to go, oh, like whatever I've heard previously about what quote-unquote- god might think of me, I'm being told here that actually I get to do what works for me and my high power gets to be whatever works for me.
What happens when the God you grew up with no longer fits your understanding? In this episode of 'Cross Talk', Corey and Claire sit down with Joh to explore their unique spiritual journey within the Al-Anon program. Joh candidly shares their experiences growing up in a religious household, the challenges they faced with ableism, and how they eventually carved out a personal and meaningful connection with a higher power.
This isn't just about religion; it's about finding a spiritual path that feels true to oneself. Joh's story is both heartfelt and eye-opening, revealing the struggles and triumphs of redefining faith on one's own terms. Corey dives deep with questions that get to the heart of Joh's transformation, while Claire brings her own quirky humor into the mix, including a memorable mention of her 'Farting Dust God'.
The conversation touches on the importance of authenticity, the tools available for spiritual connection, and how pausing to trust in one's higher power can bring structure and creativity to everyday life. Whether you're wrestling with your own spiritual beliefs or simply curious about how others navigate their faith journeys, this episode offers a rich tapestry of insights and reflections.
