Bill C's Take on Step 3: Finding God and Embracing Recovery

We are the mechanisms which God uses to save lives. If that's the case- which I believe it is- then we want to become as good an instrument as we can become.
What happens when you blend spirituality with the structured steps of recovery? In this episode of 'Sober Speak', Bill C brings his rich experience in Alcoholics Anonymous to the table, literally and figuratively. He dives into Step 3, where the concept of God takes center stage in the recovery process. Bill argues that many create a version of God they can't believe in, but he insists that God is more of an experience than a mere concept.
He shares his views on how each AA member's journey is unique, yet all are connected by the same core program. Bill passionately discusses the importance of doing a thorough third step, which naturally leads to the crucial fourth and fifth steps. He highlights the significance of sitting across the kitchen table and reading the AA book as a pivotal part of recovery.
Bill's insights into the spiritual path within AA reveal how it differs from other spiritual paths, emphasizing that God's constant disclosure can guide individuals on their journey to sobriety. Whether you're new to AA or a seasoned member, this episode offers a fresh perspective on integrating spirituality with recovery.
