It's unconditional love that I am experiencing from within, and it's a part of every mind, even the worst of minds.
Ever wondered how to find a personal connection with God in your recovery journey? In this episode, Father Bill W., an Episcopal priest who has been in recovery from alcoholism since 1972, shares his insights on the transformative power of the Two-Way Prayer experiment. This method, rooted in the Oxford Group's teachings, invites you to be open-minded and willing to listen to an Inner Voice that offers guidance and love.
Father Bill discusses the importance of morning meditation, a practice that has been somewhat lost in modern AA traditions. He explains how this quiet time can help you tap into a 'Great Reality' within, providing answers to your needs and problems. The episode delves into the pamphlet's assertion that God has a plan for each of us, making it a life-changer for many in 12-Step recovery.
You'll hear about the steps involved in Two-Way Prayer: being still and quiet, listening to every thought, testing them to ensure they come from God, and then acting on them. Father Bill emphasizes that addiction is often a 'love disorder' and that we need help from outside ourselves to heal. Through love over ego, you can connect more deeply with yourself and find the wisdom to make better choices.
If you're struggling with addiction or simply seeking a deeper spiritual practice, this episode offers valuable insights and practical steps to enhance your recovery journey. Father Bill's blend of historical wisdom and modern application makes this a must-listen for anyone interested in the spiritual dimensions of sobriety.
