Finding Solace: The Role of Prayer in Recovery During COVID-19

Prayer is a revolutionary act because it's through prayer you can say yes to life, no matter what, even in the face of nuclear annihilation or, the worst, even in the face of what we're facing right now.
In these challenging times, many of us have questioned the role of prayer in our lives, especially when it comes to recovery. This episode of the MARR Addiction Treatment Centers' podcast dives into this very topic with Ashley McQueen and Jordan Detweiler, both counselors who have navigated their own long-term recovery journeys. They share their personal experiences and professional insights on how prayer can be a source of connection and peace, regardless of one's religious beliefs.
Ashley and Jordan emphasize that prayer isn't exclusive to the religious. It's a tool for anyone seeking solace and strength, particularly in the face of the uncertainties brought about by COVID-19. They explore how spiritual principles can guide us, the liberation that comes with accepting help, and the common struggle of overcoming our ego's resistance to openness. Jordan poignantly describes prayer as a 'revolutionary act', highlighting its power to help us embrace life even amidst dire circumstances.
Whether you're religious, spiritual, or simply curious, this episode offers valuable perspectives on finding peace through prayer during recovery. Tune in to hear how these principles can support you or a loved one on the path to healing.
