Father Bill W: Choosing Between Alcohol and Spiritual Awakening

In other words, if you can identify, then you don't have to drink your way down, but you got to get down.
Imagine being at a crossroads where your choices are to continue down a path of alcoholism or to dive deep into spiritual enlightenment. That's exactly where Father Bill W found himself. In this episode of 'Sober Speak', Father Bill W from Buda, TX, opens up about his remarkable journey from the depths of addiction to a life transformed by spirituality and Alcoholics Anonymous (AA).
As a Jesuit novice, he faced a stark decision: stay drunk or find salvation in an Ashram. His choice led him to AA, where he discovered the power of the 12 steps and a renewed sense of purpose. Father Bill W doesn't just talk about quitting alcohol; he delves into how spirituality played a pivotal role in his recovery. He shares personal stories that illustrate the transformative power of embracing a higher power and the AA community.
The episode wraps up with listener feedback and a discussion on the importance of community support in maintaining sobriety. If you're looking for an inspiring story that blends faith and recovery, this episode is a must-listen.
