Faith gives us a moral framework. In other words, what is good and what isn't good? Who gets to decide?
In this episode of the Relational Recovery Podcast, hosts Wes Thompson and Austin Hill dive into the significance of faith in the recovery journey. They explore how a moral framework, often rooted in faith, can provide essential guidance on what is right and wrong, helping individuals navigate life's challenges.
The episode draws on teachings from the New Testament, particularly the words of Jesus in Matthew 5:43-47, to illustrate the transformative power of loving not just your neighbours but also your enemies. This radical approach to love and morality is presented as a key element in fostering a supportive and cohesive community, especially for those in recovery. The hosts discuss how faith can unify people with shared worldviews, enabling them to support each other and work towards a common goal.
They also touch on the broader implications of morality and selflessness, emphasising that these principles are crucial for personal growth and societal well-being. By blending Christian spirituality with psychological insights, this episode offers a comprehensive perspective on how faith can be a cornerstone in the path to recovery. Whether you're new to the journey or have been at it for a while, there's plenty of wisdom and encouragement to be found here.
Tune in to discover how embracing a moral framework can help you build a better life for yourself and those around you.
