Navigating Intimacy Anorexia: The Role of Spirituality

Whoever wants to be a leader among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first among you must be your slave, must become your slave, for even the son of man came not to be served but to serve others and to give his life as a ransom for many.
Ever thought about how spirituality impacts your relationships? In this episode of 'The Recovery Lifestyle', hosts John Rizzi and Chris Decker tackle the sixth trait of Intimacy Anorexia—Withholding Spirituality. Chris opens up about his own struggles, sharing a personal story of how an emotional affair began through shared spiritual moments with another woman. This raw and honest conversation sheds light on how withholding spirituality can create emotional distance and lead to unintended consequences.
John and Chris discuss the importance of 'dying to our selfishness' and embracing servant leadership as a way to build stronger, more authentic connections. They highlight how regularly engaging in spiritual practices, like reading scripture, attending recovery meetings, and serving your community, can pave the way for lasting sobriety and deeper relationships. If you're looking to understand the intersection of faith and intimacy, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice.
Tune in for a heartfelt discussion that might just change the way you view spirituality in your recovery journey.
