Sober Spirituality

The Joy of a Mindful Relationship with Alcohol

De: Erin Jean Warde

Narrado por: Susan Hanfield

When author and Episcopal priest Erin Jean Warde quit drinking, she heard from many others in a similar situation seeking support. In Sober Spirituality, she combines personal storytelling with theological reflection to offer encouragement, wisdom, and practical insight for listeners who want to reexamine their relationship with alcohol.

Warde explores the way our culture promotes alcohol consumption and shows how we can choose to change our perception of alcohol in our spiritual communities. She names not only the challenges of sobriety and spirituality but also the tremendous gifts and blessings that come through quitting drinking or being more mindful about alcohol use.

Listeners will emerge with a deeper understanding of how their faith informs daily habits and choices. Sober Spirituality also calls the church to a better understanding of how it can ally with recovery communities. Ultimately, this book declares we are all worthy of an abundant and joyful life in mind, body, and soul.

A Must Read for anyone curious about our relationship with alcohol

This work is not only insightful and wise but it articulates the wonderings of many around our individual and corporate relationship with alcohol, at least in the U.S. She invites us into mindfulness practices for use both individually, as a religious community, and even as a wider culture.

Hope, healing, and resurrection are themes we all need more of!

I cannot recommend strongly enough this work.
