Faith vs. Atheism: Joey C.'s Raw Take on Spirituality and Sobriety

We alcoholics have to believe in some power greater than ourselves. Yes, we have to believe in god.
Imagine yourself in a grocery store parking lot, tuning into a candid chat about one of life's biggest questions: faith. In this episode of 'Brutally Sober', Joey C. tackles the age-old debate between atheism and belief in a higher power. Kicking things off, Joey discusses why believing in something greater than ourselves is a cornerstone of Alcoholics Anonymous. But he doesn't stop there. He dives into the concept of atheism, pondering whether it’s just another form of blind faith.
Joey throws in a thought-provoking point: just because there's no evidence of God doesn't mean there isn't one. It’s a bold take that might make you rethink your own beliefs. As the conversation unfolds, Joey shifts gears to talk about inner peace and how crucial it is to find serenity amidst life's chaos. He suggests that stepping back from our worries is the only way to truly achieve peace.
With his signature humor, Joey even jokingly invites listeners to drink and then tell him how awful they feel, adding a touch of levity to a serious topic. This episode offers a raw, honest, and engaging look at spirituality and sobriety, making it a must-listen for anyone grappling with these profound issues.
