A recording from last year when tommy and I did our Big Book Study. We go through Bill's story as it is written in the big book. We discuss the feelings, powerlessness and the solution he found that later became the 12 step program. We tie the 12 steps into his story and make sense out of everything. This is a great listen. Enjoy!!

Thoroughly dissecting step 5. The do's and the dont's of step 5. Creating the humility as a sponsor so that step 5 is effective and the rest of the steps mean somthing. If humility is not achieved then the rest of the steps will not be effective for long term recovery. This is a very comprehensive session using both the Big Book and the 12x12. 

STEP 4 - Resentments, Fears and partial sex conduct. Jesse and Bill Share their take on this portion of step work, and the book.

Spirituality, Self examination, recovery, ups and downs... Growing through it all

Talking about what it really means to turn your will over to the care of God. Is God a theory in your life is is God applied through the practical application?

I share my story in short form that was recorded this past summer. I hope you get something out of it.

Tracy L from Connecticut shares her journey of substance dependency. She wasn't a full blown addict but physically dependant on opiods. She didn't even know what life was like without these drugs of no choice. Many people get into addiction through using opiates as pain killers. Once the doctor told her she needed to get off the drugs that were prescribed to her for most of her adult life, she got off. She now uses her experience to carry a message to others. Thank you Tracy...

In this episode we lay out where and how to find the God/Higher Power we so desperately need to stay sober and more importantly to change and live our best life. We go over many aspects in this episode and it is by far one our favorite steps to deliver and understand. This step grows and develops over time.
