In this episode of the Redeemed and Restored Podcast, host Mike Noland and David Vanbuskirk dive into the powerful principle behind Step 10 in recovery and the role it plays in living a spiritually healthy life. They discuss the importance of taking a daily personal inventory, promptly admitting when we are wrong, and staying spiritually aware throughout the day. The conversation highlights how small compromises or unnoticed drifts can slowly move us off course, often leading to bigger consequences over time. Through honest reflection and a commitment to alignment with God’s will, Step 10 becomes more than a recovery practice—it becomes a daily spiritual discipline that keeps our hearts humble, our relationships healthy, and our direction centered on Christ. Mike and David share how consistent self-examination helps us “catch the drift” early, allowing God to correct our course before small missteps turn into major detours.
