In recovery, we grow up over here. It's a process of getting to know and accept who you are, but also learning how to build a relationship with the God of your understanding.
Vernon Layne, the insightful host of 'That Christian in Recovery', brings a fresh perspective on the journey of recovery in this episode. Tackling the often-overlooked aspect of emotional and spiritual growth, Vernon dives deep into how recovery is more than just giving up substances—it's about growing up and maturing into the person you were meant to be. Drawing from his own life experiences, he highlights the struggles addicts face with self-centeredness and the constant search for external validation.
But, as Vernon explains, true recovery lies in looking inward and finding strength, acceptance, and forgiveness within ourselves. He passionately discusses how connecting with a higher power and engaging in the 12-step process can help unravel the root causes of addiction and self-destructive behaviors. With a blend of personal stories and biblical wisdom, Vernon offers a hopeful message: recovery is a transformative journey that leads to spiritual renewal and self-discovery.
Whether you're on your own path to healing or supporting someone who is, this episode provides valuable insights and encouragement.
