Finding Faith: Understanding 'We Agnostics' in the Big Book

I have to believe I cannot get better on my own, that I cannot get better with help from other human beings, that the spiritual solution is the only thing that's going to save me.
Have you ever questioned the role of spirituality in your recovery journey? In this episode, David G, Nancy F, and the rest of the crew dive deep into Chapter 4 of the Big Book, aptly titled 'We Agnostics'. The session kicks off with a set-aside prayer and a recap of the previous chapter, setting the stage for a thoughtful discussion on belief and the practical steps to recovery.
The hosts tackle some heavy topics, like the warning signs of stubbornness and self-will, and the need to let go of old mindsets to embrace a spiritual solution. One memorable quote from the episode really hits home: 'I have to believe I cannot get better on my own, that I cannot get better with help from other human beings, that the spiritual solution is the only thing that's going to save me'.
The episode also underscores the importance of perseverance and hard work in recovery, cautioning against the allure of instant fixes. Whether you're new to the twelve-step program or have been on this path for a while, this episode offers valuable insights into how spirituality can be a cornerstone in your journey to sobriety.
