The Gathering With Roger B.

Roger B.

The Gathering’s talks are generally tied to one or more of the 12 Steps, but are always guided by spiritual concepts, principles and ideas common to most faiths. Topics are drawn from a variety of sources: the 12 steps, many of the well-known wisdom texts, science and other teachers that speak to a spiritual solution to life's challenges. About Roger B. Roger has been in recovery for over 43 years and has spent thousands of hours in service, sharing his experience, strength and hope. He has created curriculum for treatment centers, and lead workshops and retreats throughout the United States and Canada. Roger is a certified Spiritual Director, and offers insight into spiritually-based living skills that are relevant to all people – whether in recovery or not. Roger is the first to admit that his long-term sobriety was brought about by the “trial-and-error method.” His experience reveals what has worked, and - perhaps more importantly - what has not worked, but taught him valuable life lessons.

Life's Classroom: Roger B. on Turning Problems into Lessons

“Life is the teacher. Some call it God, Chi, The Holy Spirit, Creator many names, but can I decode the day. Instead of why is this happening to me? Why not what is this trying to show me or teach me? The "problem" becomes an opportunity. One Teacher and I become the student...class is in session!”

Ever wondered if life's challenges are trying to teach you something? In this episode of 'The Gathering with Roger B.', Roger dives into the idea that life itself is our greatest teacher. Whether you call it God, Chi, or the Holy Spirit, Roger believes that every problem we face is an opportunity to learn and grow.

Instead of asking, 'Why is this happening to me?', he suggests we ask, 'What is this trying to show me?' This shift in perspective can transform our lives in profound ways. Roger shares his own journey of changing his thoughts and behaviors to improve his life conditions. He emphasizes the importance of self-reflection, mindfulness, and gratitude in personal growth and mental health.

His relatable and down-to-earth approach makes these concepts accessible to everyone, whether you're in recovery or just looking for some spiritual guidance. Tune in to discover how you can decode life's lessons and turn challenges into opportunities for growth.
