Week 12: Embracing Change - Steps 4 and 5 in Recovery

A transformation from being selfish, self-centered, to being altruistic, to be giving rather than taking.
Imagine a journey where the path to recovery is illuminated by understanding and personal growth. In Week 12 of The Big Book Study, Tim B. dives into the transformative power of the fourth and fifth steps of Alcoholics Anonymous. These steps aren't just milestones; they are pivotal moments that mark the shift from a life of selfishness to one of altruism and giving back.
Tim shares his wisdom on how addressing resentments can unlock spiritual growth and keep you connected to the 'sunlight of the spirit'. He also talks about the dangers of shutting ourselves off from this light, which can lead to the chaos of alcoholism. Through personal anecdotes and practical advice, Tim highlights the importance of recognizing our part in situations and taking proactive steps towards what we ought to do.
This episode is a treasure trove of insights for anyone committed to their recovery journey, offering both inspiration and practical guidance.
