The essence of this step is making the effort to correct the wrong in our life. So in addictions, intoxication has usually created situations where we felt guilty for a long time about the things that we've done and our relationships are taxed or broken in nature. And the good news is there's a way out of this long-term agony.
Facing the past isn't easy, but it’s a crucial part of healing. In this episode of 'The Intersection of Spirituality, Psychology, and Theology', the hosts dive into Step 9 of Life Recovery, focusing on the art of making amends. If you’ve ever wondered how to repair the damage you've caused in others' lives, this episode offers a roadmap. The hosts break down the difference between direct and indirect amends and discuss the courage it takes to face those we've wronged.
They emphasize that making amends isn't about seeking forgiveness—that's a different step—but about genuinely repairing relationships and reducing the shame tied to past actions. Through the lens of spirituality, psychology, and theology, they explore how this step can help you move from guilt to grace, ultimately fostering healthier connections with others. Whether you’re struggling with addiction, codependency, or trauma, this episode offers insights into overcoming pride and embarrassment.
It’s not just about clearing the wreckage of the past but also about stepping into a future filled with more meaningful relationships. Tune in to learn how to make peace with your past and embrace a brighter, healthier future.
