I've got to stay close to God. I've got to sacrifice 20 minutes. Some days three. Some days five. And I've got to work with other alcoholics? I don't think so. Established on such a footing, well, actually, let me move on.
Ever wondered what it truly means to let go and find freedom in recovery? In this episode of Sober Cast, Scott S takes us through a workshop from the 2009 Montclair New Jersey Big Book Workshop, focusing on Step 3 - Surrender and Compliance.

This episode offers a deep dive into the spiritual awakening that is central to AA's principles, providing listeners with both inspiration and practical insights for their own path to sobriety.
