Gary S. on Step One: Understanding the Big Book's Core

Our program, our book, is all about the spirit, the spiritual, and it's going to be big enough to say there's other ways. But we want to look at this obsession again.
Have you ever wondered what the first step in Alcoholics Anonymous truly means? In this episode of 'A Walk Thru Our Big Book', Gary S. continues his deep dive into AA's foundational text, recorded live at the Detroit House of Recovery. The session kicks off with the third step prayer and a grapevine talk, setting a reflective tone for the discussion that follows.
Gary emphasizes the spiritual nature of the program, explaining that while there are various ways to approach it, understanding the obsession and allergy of alcoholism is crucial. This episode also touches on the significant role of fellowship and the influence of Dr. Silkworth on the Big Book's development. Gary’s insights make it clear that identifying the problem is just as important as understanding the promises AA offers.
If you're looking to deepen your understanding of AA's first step and its spiritual dimensions, this episode is a must-listen.
