The Big Book's Mistaken Identity: Uncovering Spiritual Truths in Recovery
“Quite often friends of the newcomer are aware of the difference long before he is himself.”
Ever wondered if there's a case of mistaken identity in the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous? This episode of 'Take 12 Recovery Radio' dives into this intriguing question. Monty Dale Meyer, affectionately known as the Monty'man, along with his co-hosts Denver and Marv, take you on a journey to uncover the truth behind a misattributed quote that's been part of A.A. rhetoric for years. But that's just the tip of the iceberg.
They also explore the rich tapestry of spiritual experiences that come with recovery, emphasizing that everyone's journey is unique and equally valid. Appendix Two of the Big Book takes center stage as the team discusses its significance and why understanding different spiritual experiences can be so empowering. And if you think it's all serious talk, think again. The episode is sprinkled with light-hearted moments, including a fun round of Take 12 Trivia and a lively debate about energy drinks.
Wrapping up with Michael Purington and the Messengers' song 'I’m My Own God', this episode is both thought-provoking and entertaining. Whether you're in recovery or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and a few laughs along the way.
