Once an alcoholic, always an alcoholic. Commencing to drink after a period of sobriety, we're in a short time as bad as ever. If we're planning to stop drinking, there must be no reservation of any kind, nor any lurking notion that someday we will be immune to alcohol.
Ever tried to control something that just keeps slipping through your fingers? In this episode of 'Purpose of this Book - Intensive Big Book Study', the hosts take you on a deep dive into Chapter 3 of the 'Alcoholics Anonymous' Big Book. This section, 'More About Alcoholism', is a sobering look at the harsh realities of trying to manage alcoholism without a spiritual foundation.
They explore the poignant story of a man who, despite his best efforts, couldn't escape the grip of his addiction. Through personal reflections and candid discussions, the hosts shine a light on the mental and spiritual battles faced by those struggling with alcohol. They pose questions that make you think about your own journey and the role spirituality might play in it.
If you're grappling with addiction or know someone who is, this episode offers a heartfelt and eye-opening exploration of why a spiritual solution might be the key to lasting recovery.
