Position of Neutrality: Discovering Purpose Beyond the Illusion of Choice in Step 1 AA Chosen for a Purpose Overcoming Alcoholism Together

This is the original description supplied with the episode.

Join Wayne Giles as he reads and expands on the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, offering deeper understanding and practical advice for those on their recovery journey. In this Step 1 AA session, Wayne discusses the profound truth that most alcoholics, for reasons still unclear, have lost the power of choice when it comes to drinking. He challenges the common belief in choice, suggesting that perhaps those who have struggled with addiction were chosen for a higher purpose.

“The fact is that most alcoholics, for reasons yet obscure, have lost the power of choice in drink. I don’t know that we ever have a choice anyway. The chosen don’t choose. And we’ve been chosen for some purpose.”

Wayne emphasizes that those who have walked the path of addiction have a unique ability to reach others who may otherwise remain lost. This session serves as a reminder that, despite the pain and struggle, there is a greater purpose at work—a purpose that empowers us to help others find their way to recovery. Through the lens of the Big Book and the 12 Steps, Wayne encourages us to embrace this calling and recognize that our experiences can lead to healing, not just for ourselves but for countless others.
