Our actor is self-centered, egocentric, as people like to call it nowadays. I thought it was, and we're going to find out- totally different, and it's kind of like bill just dropped this right in the middle of this- how it works here, right, you know, because we've been talking about alcoholism, alcoholism, alcohol and the problem with alcohol.
Ever wondered how the 'Big Book' guides individuals through the maze of recovery? In this episode of 'Purpose of this Book - Intensive Big Book Study,' hosts David G, Mark B, Minor A, and Nance F take you on a deep dive into the chapter 'How It Works.' They kick things off with the set-aside prayer and lay out the session's agenda, emphasizing the importance of having a sponsor and engaging in internal work.
The conversation then shifts to understanding what it means to be 'powerless' over alcohol and the nature of powerlessness itself. The hosts don't shy away from tackling tough topics like self-pity and fear, both of which play significant roles in addiction and recovery. They also delve into the second step of the twelve-step program, which involves coming to believe in a higher power. Personal stories and reflections are sprinkled throughout, adding a human touch to the discussion.
This episode serves as a reminder that while the journey of recovery is challenging, spiritual progress can lead to a fulfilling new way of life. Tune in to gain insights and find encouragement on your path to sobriety.
