When we enter the program, we have lost the power of choice. And this conscious, intentional choice capability is one of the ways that, by practicing spiritual principles, I get to live the life I want to live, because I don't get blindsided and drug into stuff that other people want me to do without being aware that I need to say no or I need to say yes to this thing, whatever it may be.
Ever felt like life throws you one curveball after another, especially while trying to stay sober? In this episode of 'Spirit of Recovery', hosts Rev. Dan Beckett and Rev. Michelle Vargas are joined by Rev. Lonnie Vanderslice to talk about handling life's unmanageability on the path to recovery. Lonnie shares a poignant story about meeting a man who had lost both his daughter and his job but still found a way to remain peaceful and serene.
This encounter made Lonnie rethink his own struggles and look for new ways to deal with life's chaos. Dan opens up about his emotional journey after a cancer diagnosis, highlighting the rollercoaster of feelings that followed. Both guests emphasize the importance of leaning on spiritual principles and community support to find inner peace and strength. They discuss living by spiritual guidelines, the power of choice in recovery, and how faith can help you see beyond your current struggles.
This episode is packed with practical advice for anyone looking to apply spiritual principles to their 12-step recovery journey. Whether you're facing adversity or just trying to find a bit of peace in your daily life, you'll find something valuable here. Tune in to hear real stories, heartfelt discussions, and actionable tips that can help you navigate the ups and downs of recovery.
