Recovery requires both skill acquisition and character development, however both are acquired through different means. Skills are taught, which means anyone can develop the necessary abilities to make a full recovery. Meanwhile character is caught, in other words, it is most developed by being around people of good character (ref 1 Corinthians 15:33). You must be certain that your recovery approach does not confuse the two – skills are not caught, and character is not best taught. Ideally, your recovery solution will involve a conglomerate of both – learning skills while being surrounded by men of character that are able to push you in both areas. The episode ends with an opportunity to assess which of these areas requires more attention in order for you to move past your current barrier into the next layer of freedom.
