I believe in what my core values are and what's going to work for me to help me grow in my recovery and be a better human.
Ever felt out of place in a recovery program that didn't align with your beliefs? In this episode, The Recovery Atheist, Del Bacon, dives into his decision to leave Alcoholics Anonymous (A.A.) and seek a path that better suited his secular worldview. Del opens up about the struggles he faced with the higher power concept central to A.A., which clashed with his atheist principles.
Instead of giving up on recovery, he found solace and support in secular programs that resonated with his values. This episode isn't just about leaving A.A.; it's about finding a recovery path that feels right for you. Del explores the origins of morality and challenges the idea that spirituality is a must for recovery. He shares personal stories of navigating recovery as an atheist and offers insights on how non-believers can find community and support without compromising their beliefs.
Whether you're questioning your place in a traditional recovery program or simply curious about secular recovery options, this episode offers a refreshing perspective. Del's candid reflections and practical advice might just inspire you to seek a path that truly aligns with your values.
