Finding Faith: Agent X and Run Riot Recovery Discuss Spirituality in Sobriety

It's sometimes these really simple little sayings that come out of this book: you're like, oh yeah, okay, yeah, when I'm defeated by my lack of power, then, and only then, am I going to be willing to open my ears and listen to some other form of solution, because all mine failed and I tried all of them.
Have you ever wondered how spirituality fits into the journey of sobriety? In this episode of 'That's NOT in the book!', Agent X teams up with Run Riot Recovery to dive into pages 45 and 46 of the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous. They share their raw, personal stories of grappling with addiction and discovering a higher power.
It's a candid conversation that explores the highs and lows of early recovery, the significance of honesty and humility, and the transformative power of faith.
One striking moment is when Agent X reflects, 'It's sometimes these really simple little sayings that come out of this book: you're like, oh yeah, okay, yeah, when I'm defeated by my lack of power, then, and only then, am I going to be willing to open my ears and listen to some other form of solution, because all mine failed and I tried all of them'.
This quote perfectly captures the essence of their discussion - the necessity of being open to new solutions when old ones have failed. Throughout the episode, both hosts discuss how their belief in a higher power has shaped their recovery and provided a source of hope and strength. Whether you're new to AA or have been on this path for years, this episode offers valuable insights and heartfelt stories that can resonate with anyone on the journey to sobriety.
