What if addiction is not just a physical affliction but a profound spiritual challenge? Join us as we navigate this compelling question with our esteemed guests, Dr. Daniel Ageze and David Carlson, exploring addiction as a chronic disease influencing the body, mind, and spirit. Delve into the ancient metaphors where the church emerges as a sanctuary of healing, with God as the ultimate healer. Discover the transformative power of the 12-step recovery process, highlighting the necessity of acknowledging a power greater than oneself. Dr. Daniel and David illuminate the spiritual dimensions of addiction, underscoring the importance of embracing spiritual solutions to address these deep-rooted issues. The episode encourages a deep reflection on how spiritual support and vulnerability can be integral to the recovery journey.
We journey through Steps Six and Seven of the recovery process, focusing on humility, prayer, and the importance of dismantling self-made structures for genuine change. Reflecting on the biblical story of the Tower of Babel, we emphasize the need for spiritual healing that surpasses external validation. Joined by Professor Robert Fortuin, David Carlson, Jeremy Stock, and Dr. Daniel, we express gratitude for their invaluable insights and encourage engaging with the resources shared. This episode culminates in a heartfelt prayer, seeking divine guidance on our spiritual journeys. We invite you to continue exploring these themes in future discussions, all while striving to live a spiritually fulfilling life.
