When things get really dark is when I'm able to see the light.
What if the key to sobriety lay in understanding the spiritual journey of one of AA's founders? In this episode, Father Bill W. takes us on a compelling exploration of Bill W.'s lesser-known spiritual experiences that paved the way for his famous 'hot-flash' moment in Towns Hospital. Growing up, Bill faced abandonment and turned to alcohol for solace, but traditional methods of recovery didn't work for him.
It wasn't until he tapped into a strength beyond himself that he began to see a new path forward. Father Bill shares these early 'mini-white light' experiences, shedding light on how they contributed to Bill's ultimate transformation. The episode also underscores the importance of humility and teachability in recovery, and how the lost practice of Two Way Prayer played a crucial role in Bill W.'s journey.
This isn't just a history lesson; it's an inspiring look at how spiritual practices can profoundly impact one's path to sobriety. Whether you're in recovery, supporting someone who is, or simply curious about the spiritual aspects of addiction, this episode offers valuable insights and encouragement. Father Bill's storytelling brings to life the transformative power of spiritual practice, inviting listeners to reflect on their own journeys and the 'Great Reality' within.
