Finding Faith: Monty'man's Meditorial on Recovery and God
At some point during the recovery process we re-examine our most fundamental beliefs. A long process of sorting, examining and questioning may take place, and in that process our relationship with god is challenged.
Can questioning your faith be part of the recovery journey? In this episode of 'Take 12 Recovery Radio', Monty Dale Meyer, affectionately known as Monty'man, presents a thought-provoking meditorial titled 'Leaving God'. This short yet impactful reflection dives into the emotional and spiritual challenges faced during recovery. Monty'man explores how re-examining one's beliefs can be a daunting, yet necessary, part of healing from addiction, codependency, and emotional dependency.
He emphasizes that feeling disconnected from God is a common experience and reassures listeners that it's okay to question and doubt. The key, he suggests, is to surround yourself with supportive friends who accept you as you are, even in moments of anger or disbelief. These friends play a crucial role in helping you navigate through your spiritual struggles without judgment.
Monty'man's meditorial offers hope that, with time and the right support, you can emerge with a deeper and more resilient faith. To wrap up the episode, there's a closing song titled 'Timeless' by Jerry Vandiver, adding a soothing touch to this reflective journey.
