It's crazy, man, how god works... it doesn't matter what is going on with me, thick and thin.
MattB's story is one of transformation and hope. Growing up, his teenage years were marked by rebellion and a knack for getting into trouble. This troublesome streak followed him into adulthood, where he turned to alcohol and drugs as a way to cope with life's stresses. However, as his addiction deepened, it began to wreak havoc on his relationships, his business, and his overall well-being. Realizing he needed a change, MattB sought help through Alcoholics Anonymous (AA).
In this episode of 'The Pink House Chronicles', he opens up about how the fellowship and spiritual principles of AA played a pivotal role in his recovery. MattB dives into the concept of addiction as a disease and how it clouded his judgment, leading to poor decisions. One of the turning points in his journey was completing the fourth step of the AA program, which involves a fearless and searching moral inventory.
This step allowed him to confront his fears and take responsibility for his actions, ultimately finding a sense of freedom and peace. Through the support of AA and the transformative power of recovery, MattB managed to rebuild his personal relationships, revive his business, and restore his life. His story serves as a powerful reminder of the resilience of the human spirit and the importance of fellowship in overcoming addiction.
