"Standing By The Door" A reflection on Rev. Sam Shoemakers poem

Podcast Description: "Standing by the Door — The Process of Recovery in Christ" In this week's episode, John and Christine dive deep into the heart of Sam Shoemaker's timeless poem "I Stand by the Door." Shoemaker's words remind us that recovery isn't about rushing ahead or pretending we've arrived — it's about staying close enough to the doorway of grace so we can help others find their way in. Together, we explore what it means to "stand by the door" in our own lives and ministries — to be people who remember what it felt like to be lost, and who choose to stay accessible, compassionate, and ready to guide the next person toward Christ. This conversation unpacks how humility, patience, and presence are essential parts of The Process of Recovery in Christ. It's not about perfection; it's about proximity — staying near the place where grace meets brokenness. If you've ever wondered how your story can help someone else find hope, this episode will speak to you. 🎧 Listen now at TheProcessInChrist.net and read Sam Shoemaker's "I Stand by the Door" — the poem that continues to inspire generations of believers and recovery communities alike. theprocessinchrist.net We pray that you enjoy this Podcast, if you want to know more about having a relationship with Jesus Christ please contact us at [email protected].  Please subscribe to the podcast and keep up with our new releases.  Remember Jesus Christ is The Cure 🙏  You can also find us on FB and Instagram @theprocessofrecoveryinchrist.
