Understanding Relapse Drift: Recognizing the Early Signs

Remember that time that you let me pray with that person and they received you. And so you know, yes, God will give you the desires of your heart, but there's a but in there, but it's got to line up with his desires.
Picture yourself on a boat, drifting slowly away from the shore without realizing it. This is how Shan, the Recovery Pastor, and guest Scott Jones describe 'relapse drift' in this episode of 'The Recovery Pastor Podcast'. They dive into the subtle signs and unnoticed shifts that can lead to a relapse before you even know what's happening. Scott Jones, a chaplain at the Brother Bryan Mission, brings his unique perspective to the table, making this discussion even richer.
The episode isn't just about the moment of relapse but focuses on the gradual process that leads up to it. Shan and Scott emphasize that relapse is not a failure but an opportunity to learn and grow. They highlight the importance of community support, sharing personal experiences to illustrate how pride and fear can prevent us from seeking help. By embracing vulnerability and relying on prayer and divine guidance, they show how it's possible to steer back to safety.
Whether you're in recovery or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights into recognizing and addressing the early warning signs of relapse.
