With readings from 'Twenty-Four Hours a Day', 'A.A.
Thought for the Day', 'Daily Reflections', 'Big Book Quote', and 'As Bill Sees It', there's a wealth of guidance to absorb. Kurt's readings touch on the theme of lessons learned through suffering and the blessings that follow. Bill W.'s quote reminds us that the pain of alcoholism can lead to God's grace and new freedom. This episode also explores the idea of faith and how small acts of trust can gradually build a strong foundation in sobriety.
The reflections encourage listeners to embrace spiritual terms and consider their personal meanings, even when doubt and anger are present. The episode highlights the importance of self-support within the AA community, recounting how early supporters like John D. Rockefeller Jr. helped establish financial independence for the organisation. This principle of self-sufficiency is echoed in the personal growth encouraged by the tenth step, emphasising the value of admitting faults and correcting them promptly.
