Abstinence for the atheist alcoholic addict generally leads to the enhancement of human development.
What if you could achieve sobriety without leaning on a higher power? In this episode of 'Beyond Belief Sobriety,' John Huey dives into the moral framework of atheism and its connection to recovery. This marks the first in a series of essays by Huey, who argues that personal responsibility and human development are the cornerstones of sobriety, rather than reliance on a higher power.
Huey shares his own experiences of re-centering himself through the support of fellow alcoholics and addicts, highlighting the power of shared experiences. He also tackles the unique challenges that atheist alcoholics face in traditional 12-step programs, which often emphasize spirituality. This episode is perfect for anyone questioning the necessity of a higher power in their recovery journey. Tune in to hear thought-provoking insights and discover how ethical behavior and personal growth can pave the way to sobriety.
