Forgiveness from the divine means it’s been completely removed or repurposed for me.
In this episode of 'Position of Neutrality', Joe McDonald dives into the profound themes of divine forgiveness as outlined in Steps 10 and 11 of Alcoholics Anonymous. Tackling the tough questions head-on, Joe addresses the common scepticism many have about seeking forgiveness from a higher power they may not yet believe in. He explains that the journey to belief is gradual, and forgiveness is an act that transcends human limitations, emanating from the divine within us.
Joe contrasts human forgiveness—often conditional and incomplete—with divine forgiveness, which is total and transformative. Joe shares his personal experiences and insights, offering a blend of wisdom and practical advice. He stresses that true forgiveness means letting go entirely, not just superficially saying 'I forgive but I don’t forget'. Instead, divine forgiveness is about complete removal or repurposing of the hurt. This episode is a compelling listen for anyone grappling with the concept of forgiveness in their recovery journey.
Joe's candid reflections provide both comfort and challenge, encouraging you to look deeper into your own beliefs and experiences. Whether you're new to the steps or revisiting them, you'll find valuable takeaways that can help you on your path to sobriety. Why not give it a listen and see how embracing divine forgiveness can transform your recovery journey?
