You become a self in The First Half of life, you build up a self. The ego must cooperate and we'll get to that in the two-way prayer, because I think that's exactly what happens.
Imagine a spiritual practice that could transform your recovery journey. In this episode, Father Bill W., an Episcopal priest who has been sober since 1972, shares his insights on the lost 11th Step practice of Two Way Prayer. Recorded at an AA workshop in Lafayette, Louisiana, Father Bill dives into the rich history of this practice and its significance in connecting individuals to the 'Great Reality' within.
Father Bill doesn't just talk about Two Way Prayer; he brings it to life with stories from the Oxford Group, Roland Hazard, and Dr. Bob. These tales aren't just historical footnotes—they offer practical lessons for anyone on the path to sobriety. You'll hear how this practice can help relocate the center of your personality from the ego to a more profound spiritual core. But it's not all ancient history.
Father Bill also touches on modern psychological insights, explaining how understanding the ego can enhance your spiritual practice and recovery. He emphasizes the importance of accepting what we cannot change and finding the courage to change what we can. This episode is a blend of storytelling, expert insights, and practical advice, making it a must-listen for anyone interested in the spiritual dimensions of recovery. Handouts from the workshop are available at TwoWayPrayer.org for those who want to dive deeper.
