Mike Todd's journey through addiction recovery takes a unique turn as he shares his experience of finding faith on the Recovery First Podcast. This episode dives into Mike's personal struggle with the concept of God, a challenge that many in recovery can relate to.

However, with the support of his community and a lot of introspection, Mike found a path to spirituality that played a crucial role in his sobriety. The episode underscores the importance of community and support systems in recovery.

By helping others and being an active part of his community, he discovered a deeper sense of purpose and fulfillment. This episode is a touching reminder that faith, in whatever form it takes, can be a powerful ally in the journey to sobriety.
