Making Peace with Your Own Concept of God: Spirituality in Recovery

We don’t even have to use the word 'God' if we don't want to! ... we can find our own understanding of god.
Struggling with the 'God thing' in your recovery journey? You're not alone. In this episode of 'Spirit of Recovery', hosts Rev. Dan Beckett and Rev. Michelle Vargas tackle the often tricky subject of finding a personal understanding of God that works for you. They know that the idea of God can be a significant barrier for many people new to recovery, especially if past experiences with religion have left a bad taste.
But here's the good news: you don't have to accept anyone else's version of God. You can create your own understanding, and you don't even have to use the word 'God' if it doesn't resonate with you. Dan and Michelle share their own experiences and offer practical advice on how to navigate this aspect of recovery. They discuss how different perspectives, including those from unity and Catholicism, can provide a broader and more inclusive concept of God.
The episode also highlights the importance of a relational aspect of God and how connecting with a higher power can guide you on your path to recovery. With mindfulness and meditation techniques, they show how these practices can help you find peace with your own concept of spirituality. Whether you're just starting your recovery journey or looking for new ways to deepen your spiritual practice, this episode offers valuable insights and encouragement.
Tune in to 'Spirit of Recovery' and discover how to make peace with the 'God thing' on your own terms.
