Confession will result in healing.
Ever wondered why admitting your wrongs to another person feels like lifting a weight off your shoulders? This episode of 'The Intersection of Spirituality, Psychology and Theology' dives into the Fifth Step of Life Recovery, focusing on the profound impact of confession. Dr. Robert Grand takes listeners through the journey of admitting wrongs not just to God, but also to oneself and another trusted individual. While it might seem enough to confess in prayer, Dr.
Grand explains how sharing these burdens with a friend or sponsor can bring immense clarity and relief. Confession, according to Dr. Grand, is a powerful tool in addiction recovery. It's not just about acknowledging faults; it's about breaking down the barriers of pride, fear, and resentment that often stand in the way of healing. By openly discussing our struggles, we can gain new perspectives and find the strength to move forward.
This step is particularly vital for those grappling with addiction, where shame and resentment can be significant roadblocks. Dr. Grand also touches on how confession helps in addressing trauma and grief. By speaking our truths, we begin to dismantle the lies we've told ourselves and open up to God's love and forgiveness. This episode is a must-listen for anyone on the path to recovery or supporting someone who is.
It offers a compassionate and insightful look at the transformative power of Step 5 in the Life Recovery process.
