From the highest heights to the deepest depths, the soul may plunge, but in itself the plunge contains the resurrection.
Ever wondered what it was like to find sobriety in the early days of Alcoholics Anonymous? In this episode of the Big Book Podcast, Howard L. narrates the intriguing story of Fred, a sculptor who found his path to recovery in the mid-1940s.

His reflections on spirituality and the support he received from the AA fellowship are both moving and inspiring. This episode is a must-listen for anyone on their own recovery journey or those supporting loved ones through theirs.
