In Episode 17 of the Catholic in Recovery podcast, Scott Weeman and Father Sean Kilcawley discuss common misunderstandings Catholics have about 12-step recovery, emphasizing how faith and recovery can work together. They address various misconceptions, such as the idea that 12-step recovery is not "Catholic enough" due to terms like "higher power" or that being a "good Catholic" means one shouldn't need recovery. The hosts highlight the deep spirituality of the Twelve Steps, their compatibility with Catholic teaching, and the importance of community and humility in the healing process.
