What drives someone to seek a life without alcohol? Fr. Joseph Collins and Fr. Michael Marcantoni take a unique approach to discussing the concept of 'rest' and workaholism, linking it to spiritual practices and recovery tools. They share their thoughts on the Sabbath Rest, drawing from Orthodox spirituality, to highlight the importance of pausing amidst life's chaos.
Through humorous anecdotes and profound reflections, they challenge the cultural glorification of busyness and explore how true rest can lead to a deeper relationship with God and oneself. By examining the biblical story of Martha and Mary, the hosts emphasise that rest is not just a physical act but a spiritual necessity that fosters a genuine connection with the divine.
They touch upon the idea that work can become addictive, akin to other dependencies, and advocate for creating space for spiritual growth. The episode encourages listeners to reflect on their own lives and consider how they might incorporate rest into their routine. Could taking a break from constant activity be the key to unlocking peace and fulfilment in your life?
