No matter how far down the elevator you go, it's steps, steps. God will constantly disclose more to you and to us.
Imagine starting your battle with addiction at the tender age of 12. That's exactly what happened to Andy Bomberger, who now shares his incredible story of 29 years of sobriety on 'Sober Shares'. Hosted by Michael Q, this episode takes you through Andy's early encounters with alcohol, including his first drink with his father, and the subsequent spiral into addiction.
Andy opens up about the harsh realities of institutionalized treatment and the aversion therapy he underwent, which he candidly describes as 'brainwashing'. Despite these daunting challenges, Andy's journey took a transformative turn when he discovered Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and its spiritual principles. He emphasizes the pivotal role of sponsorship and community in his recovery, providing invaluable insights for anyone grappling with addiction.
Andy also shares practical advice on navigating social situations while maintaining sobriety, making his story not just one of struggle, but of hope and grace. Whether you're on your own path to recovery or supporting someone who is, Andy's message offers a beacon of hope and practical wisdom.
