  • Recovery requires abandoning old ways for a new spiritual path.
  • Faith can provide peace in the chaos of addiction.
  • The decision to embrace faith is pivotal in recovery.

Step into a world of transformation with Rev. Jon R. as he unpacks the profound experience of Step 3 in the 12-step recovery programme. If you've ever felt like your life is a bit of a tangled mess, you're not alone. Rev. Jon R. brings his personal journey to light, sharing how turning one's will and life over to the care of God can be a game-changer.
It's not about having everything figured out; it's about making a decision and embracing a new way of living. Rev. Jon R. paints a vivid picture of how Step 3 is more than just a declaration – it's an abandonment of old ways and a leap into the unknown with faith as your parachute. He discusses the importance of recognising that no human solution can fix the spiritual unrest that addiction brings.
Instead, it's about surrendering control to a higher power and embracing the promises laid out in the Big Book. Through anecdotes and reflections, Rev. Jon R. explains how this step is akin to graduating from life's chaos into a university of spiritual growth. He shares how his relationship with God became the cornerstone of his recovery, allowing him to shift from consuming life to contributing to it.
With humour and honesty, he illustrates the anxiety and trepidation that accompany this decision, likening it to the fear felt when moving out for university. Rev. Jon R.'s story is one of hope and rebirth, showing that recovery is not just about abstaining from substances but about building a new life rooted in faith and connection.
So, if you're curious about how turning your life over to God can bring peace and transformation, this episode might just be the nudge you need.
