A complete change takes place in our approach to life. But also I have known a great deal of joy and a peace that is the handmaiden of an inner freedom.
Imagine having every advantage in life but still finding yourself trapped by alcoholism. In this episode of the Big Book Podcast, Howard L. reads 'The Keys of the Kingdom', a powerful chapter from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous. The story follows Sylvia K., a woman who, despite her privileged background, struggled with alcoholism until she discovered AA. Traveling from Chicago to Ohio in 1939, Sylvia met recovering alcoholics and was inspired to start a group in Chicago.
Though she didn’t get sober immediately, her determination paid off, and she eventually achieved long-term sobriety. Sylvia’s journey is a testament to the transformative power of AA's principles and the support of a dedicated group. Her story highlights the crucial role of community and the twelve steps in finding joy and inner freedom. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking hope and inspiration on their own path to recovery.
