Join us as we unravel the wisdom from the pages of the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, chapter by chapter. In this episode, we explore the profound insights of Bill Wilson, the co-founder of AA, and his conviction that self-knowledge and willpower alone cannot conquer alcoholism. 

We'll take you on a journey through tales of those who thought they had it all under control, only to find themselves trapped in the clutches of alcohol once again. The gripping story of a man who stayed sober for 25 years, only to succumb to the allure of that first drink, will leave you pondering the power of addiction.

So, if you're seeking insight, inspiration, and a path to sobriety, don't miss this thought-provoking installment of "Decoding the Big Book." Tune in now and discover the keys to lasting freedom from alcoholism. 

Decoding the Big Book, is sourced from "Writing the Big Book, by William Schaberg.  We highly recommend this book.  Click here to purchase the book on Amazon.
