Understanding the problem as spiritual in nature will set us on course for the proper solution.
What if the key to overcoming addiction lies in understanding its spiritual roots? In this episode of 'Straight Up No Chaser', Jerome Oakley takes a deep dive into the spiritual nature of alcoholism and addiction. Drawing on the experiences of Bill W., co-founder of Alcoholics Anonymous, Jerome explores how a personal relationship with a higher power can be transformative. It's not just about attending meetings; it's about embracing self-sacrifice and constructive action to find true recovery.
The Oxford group's principles of unselfishness and the importance of carrying AA's message are central themes. Jerome argues that secular solutions often miss the mark because they don't address the spiritual void that fuels addiction. This episode offers a heartfelt discussion on why understanding and nurturing your spiritual side can be the turning point in your journey to sobriety.
