The Man Who Mastered Fear: Archie T.'s Journey in AA

The most accurate answer I can give you is this: fear has never again ruled my life since That Day in September when I found that a power greater than myself could not only restore me to sanity but could keep me both sober and sane.
Imagine facing your deepest fears and coming out stronger on the other side. That's exactly what Archie T. did, and his story is the focus of this episode of the Big Book Podcast. Titled 'The Man Who Mastered Fear', this narrative isn't just about overcoming fear; it's about the transformative power of Alcoholics Anonymous and its twelve steps.
Originally appearing in the Second Edition of the Big Book, Archie’s expanded story provides a detailed look at his path to sobriety and the impact he had on the AA community in Detroit. Archie got sober in Akron in 1938 and even lived with Dr. Bob and his wife Anne for nearly a year. His journey took him back to Detroit, where he worked tirelessly to establish AA’s first group in the city, helping countless others along the way.
This episode is more than just a reading; it's a testament to the power of honesty, service, and finding purpose after addiction. Through Howard L.'s narration, you'll hear about the struggles and triumphs that defined Archie’s journey, making it an inspiring listen for anyone on their own path to recovery.
