Understanding the 'Big Book': Honesty, Principles, and Recovery

I always thought you were going to be able to save him, and I don't make a comment to that because the person doesn't know.
Ever wondered what it really means to live by the principles of the 'Big Book'? In this episode, David G, Mark B, Minor A, and Nance F take you through pages 138-141, focusing on honesty and the true nature of alcoholism. They kick things off with the set-aside prayer and a quick check-in, setting the tone for a deep dive into recovery.
The hosts explore the importance of the 11th step routine and share personal stories about the power of accountability and facing consequences. One particularly moving segment features a guest recounting their experience of trying to help someone who wasn't ready to stop drinking. It's a stark reminder that you can't control others' journeys—only your own. The episode wraps up with a discussion on the spiritual malady underlying addiction and the transformative power of prayer.
If you're part of a twelve-step program or just curious about the 'Big Book', this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice for your recovery journey.
