“We need to be absolutely convinced of something before we have a buy-in to it, right, no matter what it is right, yeah...I had to understand the problem before I can understand the solution. And then, once I understood the solution, I had to have a deeper understanding of the problem in order to maintain a healthy state of recovered, and I think that's where a lot of people stumble.”
Ever feel like you're stuck in a cycle you can't break? In this episode of 'Take 12 Recovery Radio', Monty Dale Meyer, affectionately known as the Monty'man, dives into the critical first step of recovery: admitting powerlessness over addiction. Joined by guests Dave and Denver, Monty explores why recognizing our inability to control our addiction is essential for finding a solution.
They dig into the concept of surrendering to a higher power and how it can be a game-changer in the journey to sobriety. The episode also touches on the struggle many Christians face when they relapse and question their standing in Christ. Monty shares his personal story of grappling with alcohol and emphasizes the importance of acknowledging one's condition to truly begin the healing process.
Alongside these deep discussions, they also talk about the role of willpower in recovery and how participating in National Recovery Month can provide additional support. Wrapping up with the soulful tune 'One of These Days' by Ben Reel, this episode is packed with insights and encouragement for anyone on the path to recovery.
