Chuck takes you on a unique journey in the Lazarus Recovery Podcast, blending his experiences in the Navy with the structured routines of faith and recovery. The episode titled 'PMS Planned Maintenance' isn't what you might think at first glance. Chuck uses his Navy background, where he dealt with Planned Maintenance Systems (PMS) for radar equipment, as a metaphor for the daily routines necessary in both recovery and faith.
He shares personal anecdotes from his time in the Navy and how the concept of routine maintenance was drilled into him—whether it was greasing parts or running daily checks. Chuck cleverly connects this to his journey in sobriety and faith, emphasising the importance of daily practices like prayer, Bible study, and attending meetings to maintain spiritual and recovery health. Through humorous yet profound reflections, Chuck talks about how AA meetings and church services both advocate for daily maintenance routines.
He recalls his early days of sobriety, running every night at 10 PM regardless of the weather, and attending multiple church services weekly. These routines helped him stay grounded and focused. Chuck also shares practical tips like asking for help every morning, a practice he found invaluable in his early recovery days. He even recounts a quirky tip from AA about throwing your wallet under the bed to ensure you start your day on your knees, asking for help.
Chuck’s message is clear: whether it's through faith or recovery, maintaining daily routines is crucial. He encourages you to examine your own 'maintenance schedules' to see if you're doing everything you can to stay on track. His blend of personal stories and practical advice makes this episode both engaging and enlightening. So, if you're struggling with maintaining your recovery or spiritual health, or just looking for some practical tips to stay on track, this episode is a must-listen.
It’s a reminder that success in both areas depends on consistent, daily efforts.
