Ep. 115 - Is Religion Enough? Where Religion & Spirituality Diverge In Our Recovery

Hello and welcome to another episode of Trudge Report. Thank you for listening and supporting the show. We begin this week with some quick life updates. Greg's week took a turn for the not so good but he's keeping a positive attitude and looking at it as an opportunity rather than a negative. Dan continues to be baffled by the hot and cold weather swings in his neck of the woods and also taking his daughter and her softball team to go watch Ohio State v Penn State softball. Corey power washes his mom's driveway and admits that it is mediocre at best. Followed by some late night Taco Bell runs. The recovery portion of the show this week surrounds the necessity or choice of whether we in recovery practice any type of religion or belong to religious bodies. We make it clear that religion or religious membership is not mandatory for happy and lasting sobriety. However, there is some overlap for many of us and there are many people in recovery that choose to take up membership in religious organizations. We discuss what we feel works and does not work in religion, keeping it plain in sight that we are not telling anyone how they must or must not believe. We discuss each of our childhood religious upbringings and where we are now with these beliefs and practices."When you pray, take time to thank God for the blessings you already have.” -Anonymous- Don't forget to like, share, rate, and download the podcast on all of your listening platforms.
