While it is a risk to make room for joy in our lives, joy requires that we be open to the possibility of experiencing conflicting emotions.
Ever wondered why joy sometimes feels just out of reach? In this episode of 'Take 12 Recovery Radio', Monty Mann, affectionately known as the Monty'man, dives into the complex relationship we have with joy. Drawing inspiration from the stories of Jesus, who celebrated with those deemed undesirable by society, Monty challenges us to rethink our resistance to joy. Could it be fear of disappointment, a clash with our beliefs, or past experiences of being shamed for our happiness?
Monty believes that embracing joy is worth the risk, even if it means facing conflicting emotions. He reminds us that joy is a precious gift, one we can accept without ignoring our pain. To top it off, Monty introduces a new segment called 'Victory Report', featuring inspiring stories from Arizona Teen Challenge participants who have overcome significant life challenges. If you're curious about how to welcome more joy into your life while navigating its complexities, this episode is a must-listen.
