Preaching the Risen Christ: Finding hope in addiction recovery

“You see the light in people's eyes come back and you see faces start to move instead of being frozen," says Tom Weston, S.J., speaking about his experience ministering to people in addiction recovery. “The humanity is reborn [...] it's resurrection.” In this episode we continue our Easter series on preaching the hope of the resurrection in a broken world. Our guest Tom Weston, S.J., is a Jesuit priest, counsellor, and man in long-term recovery, who has devoted most of his priestly life to working alongside people battling addiction — leading 12-step based retreats, offering counseling and spiritual accompaniment, and lecturing internationally. Together with host Ricardo da Silva, S.J., they discuss how we can all be witnesses to the resurrection and recipients of God’s grace, no matter how dark our lives may seem.
