Only the lord can be the one that is truly the power greater than ourselves that the program speaks about. This gift came as a result of a faithful marriage, and so we can see the power of god and what he wants to do in all of us.
Addiction doesn’t just affect the individual; it ripples through families, creating complex dynamics that can either hinder or help recovery. In this episode of 'Healing Addictions', Fr. Christophe Lepoutre dives into the relational aspects of addiction, offering a unique blend of spiritual and practical insights. Drawing from his experience as both an Orthodox priest and a marriage counselor, Fr. Christophe emphasizes the crucial role family members play in the healing process.
He sheds light on how codependency can perpetuate addiction and discusses the transformative power of righteous living and sacraments in reversing its effects. Despite the challenges, especially when one spouse resists change, Fr. Christophe’s message is clear: hope and healing are possible. Through a commitment to repentance, fasting, and prayer, families can find a path to recovery together.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the intricate web of relationships involved in addiction and the holistic approach offered by the Holy Orthodox Church.
