Healing Through Forgiveness: Faith’s Role in Recovery

That's what forgiveness is, friends. It's not that it didn't happen. It happened and it was horrible. It's not that it doesn't hurt. It's just that I'm not going to live in the offense any longer. I've been wounded long enough. Why would I choose to stay wounded when healing is in his hands?
Can forgiveness and faith really change the course of addiction recovery? This episode of 'Relational Recovery' from The Refuge Ministry delves into these powerful themes. The hosts kick off by discussing how faith can be a cornerstone in the journey to overcome addiction, emphasizing the importance of leaning on a higher power. They highlight that forgiveness isn't about ignoring past traumas but choosing to release the pain and move forward.
One host poignantly asks, 'Why would I choose to stay wounded when healing is in his hands'? The episode also touches on the uplifting power of praising God, drawing inspiration from the psalms. The hosts share how gratitude and joy can be cultivated through spiritual practices, even after facing significant challenges. A reading from Romans adds depth to the conversation, exploring the ongoing battle between good and evil and the complexities of addiction recovery.
Listeners are reminded that the road to healing is tough but achievable with community support and a willingness to change. The hosts also discuss the science behind behavior change, stressing that breaking free from addiction requires more than just willpower. It’s a holistic process that blends spirituality with psychological insights. Personal stories and reflections add a heartfelt touch, making the episode relatable and inspiring.
By the end, listeners are left feeling motivated and encouraged to continue their own paths towards healing and wholeness. Tune in to hear how the transformative power of forgiveness and faith can guide you on your recovery journey.
