Description
Despite Craig's best efforts, he has been able to get sober and stay sober for several years using the tools of recovery. Craig discusses in detail how the discussion of the Tao has helped his misunderstanding of a Higher Power. We are taking a break from the weekly group meeting and interviewing some past participants and Facebook group members. If your recovery has been enhanced by Taoist text, don't hesitate to contact us and share your experience! Here are some of the questions we tackle; 1. Background; Where from, vocation, family, a picture of your life then and now. 2. Has your view of the H.P. changed since you started your recovery journey? How similar is your present H.P. to the one you grew up with? 3. Why does the Tao speak to you? How do you see your relationship with the Tao? What is the Tao to you? 4. Do you have a favorite Tao verse or quote? 5. Do you recommend any Tao podcasts other than this one? 6. Any Tao-related books or devotionals?
