Ever wondered what an Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) meeting sounds like on the radio? In this episode of AA on Air, you'll get a front-row seat to a live AA meeting, broadcast straight from Wellington Access Radio. Hosted by Dan, who opens the session with the Serenity Prayer, the episode dives into personal stories and spiritual reflections that will resonate deeply with anyone on a journey towards sobriety.
The episode features a reading from the AA Big Book by Chris, focusing on the concept of spiritual experiences and awakenings. Chris shares how these experiences aren't always sudden and dramatic but often develop slowly over time. This sets the stage for Jeremy's powerful story of hitting rock bottom and making the life-changing decision to quit drinking. His raw honesty about the manipulative and insipid person he had become is both shocking and inspiring.
Jeremy's tale isn't just about the lows but also about the incredible highs of recovery. He talks about the initial struggle, the support from his parents, and how AA meetings helped him reclaim his life. The narrative is a testament to the transformative power of honesty, willingness, and open-mindedness. You'll also hear from another member who recounts his early exposure to AA through his sober parents and how he eventually found solace in the programme.
His story is a rollercoaster of youthful rebellion, early parenthood, and eventual redemption through sobriety. This episode is not just a collection of stories; it's a lifeline for anyone struggling with alcoholism. The candid conversations and shared experiences offer a unique perspective on the challenges and triumphs of staying sober. So, if you're looking for some real talk about alcohol recovery, this episode is a must-listen.
It might just be the nudge you need to take that first step or to keep going on your own journey. Why not tune in and see if you find a piece of your story in theirs?
