BOOK REVIEW

It’s always exciting when I discover a book that has fresh concepts and approaches to the subject of addiction recovery. Breathing Under Water by Richard Rohr is just that and more.


I’ve been using this book in my own recovery walk for over a year now. With every chapter I get new insights that help me get up and take my daily baby steps again.


Though he is not a recovering addict, Fr. Rohr has a sweet way of lining up our hurts and issues with the spirituality and healing we all long for. 

Breathing Under Water, like all of Richard Rohr’s books, is beautifully written and is one of my favorite books. I highly recommend this book to anyone who struggles with addiction of any type.

Running on Empty

Those who have been a follower of Christ for any length of time understand the highs and lows of faith that come on our journey.

My husband and I have been in life transition for the last several months. During this time, I have failed to take the needed time to keep filled up spiritually. 

Now I find myself running on empty… never a good thing.

 It’s not that I don’t know what to do to repair the situation, but I’ve got to want to be better first. I know it will come with some extended time of solitude with God.
