In this episode, we dive deep into the heart of recovery with Chapter Four: We Agnostics. 

Discover why Bill chose the title "We Agnostics" and how it reflects his inclusive approach to spirituality. Half of the fellowship were once strangers to religious experiences, just like many of us. 

Bill's timeless wisdom reminds us that, even in the 21st century, AA members have embraced diverse views of a higher power, making sobriety accessible to all. 

Discover the inspiring story of Fitz Mayo, a man who hit rock bottom but found redemption through a powerful spiritual experience. It's a tale that will touch your soul and remind you of the incredible transformations that belief can bring. 

Join us on this thought-provoking journey through "We Agnostics," where faith, science, and the human spirit converge in the quest for recovery. Whether you're a seasoned AA member or just starting your journey, this episode offers insights and inspiration you won't want to miss.
