God Took Me to Las Vegas
My mission with the God Took Me to Las Vegas podcast is to save lives and allow the person to Reveal the Lifestyle Champion within them.There are many different types of recovery programs, they all are aimed at helping those battling substance use disorders to transition from being harmed to being clean and sober. Anyone who’s battling a compulsive or destructive behavior wants to be healthy and they desire to live a happy and productive life. Sadly, only 1 in 10 Americans with a substance use disorder receives treatment. Why?Because it’s not safe to come forward and admit your challenges. The stigma is fueling an American public health crisis and we need to “Crush the Stigma!”Substance use disorders are associated with discrimination and social disapproval – more than any medical condition. These same people are often isolated, outcast, and even imprisoned. Stigma isolates people, it discourages them from seeking help, and even leads some medical providers to resist delivering evidence-based treatment services.

Episode 178 - Step 6 We were entirely ready!
STEP 6: We were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character!
Think about this for a minute before trying to decode it. There is so much behind this one step. It means a lot when it comes to recovery from an addiction. Before getting more to the meaning of this step, it is essential to understand the basics of it. You are going to ask “God” to help get rid of your character defects, weaknesses, or flaws. This step can take a while and you can repeat it time and time again
Are you willing to ask God to help you out in your recovery from an addiction? This part is the most difficult for some people who are recovering from any compulsive and destructive behavior. Many addicts and alcoholics find it difficult to admit they need this kind of help. They find it tough to reach out and rely on something greater than themselves.
Once you ask God to remove your defects of character, you can finally feel a bit more at peace with yourself in recovery. You can feel less alone in the recovery process as well.
Step 6 is a big one. If you aren’t willing to ask God to remove your defects of character, you may become stuck in your recovery. You may feel alone and like you can’t get the help you need. By asking your God to remove your defects of character, you can feel less weighed down. You can feel lighter going through your recovery from this point forward. If that is the type of feeling you want to have in your recovery, make sure you get through this step.
Remind yourself often to ask God to remove your defects of character. Keep in mind that recovery isn’t a once and your done process.
