And one thing I do know is that a belief in a god has absolutely nothing to do with my sobriety.
John H. from the We Agnostics Group in Washington DC takes a bold stance on a long-standing debate in addiction recovery. In this episode of Beyond Belief Sobriety, he questions the relevance of the Twelve Steps in today’s world. Are these steps still useful, or is it time to move on? John H. dives into the history and controversies surrounding the Twelve Steps, offering a fresh perspective for atheists and agnostics.
He argues that while love and service are vital in recovery, a belief in God is not. This episode is packed with thought-provoking insights, challenging listeners to reconsider traditional recovery methods and explore secular alternatives. Whether you're in recovery yourself or supporting someone who is, John H.'s arguments provide a lot of food for thought.
