Episode notes

Join Joe McDonald as he reads from the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, diving into the profound experience of honest prayer and the spiritual journey of Steps 5, 6, and 7 AA. Joe reflects on the significance of acknowledging our true selves before God and the importance of building a solid foundation for recovery.

“That’s the first honest prayer I ever said because I knew now that God knew me even when I didn’t know me. And he met me right where I was. I didn’t have to prep. You know what my prep was? I got dead. All right, so taking this book down from our shelf, we turn to the page which contains the 12 steps. Carefully reading the first 5 proposals, we ask if we’ve omitted anything, for we’re building an arch through which we shall walk a free man at last. Is our work solid so far? Are the stones properly in place? Have we skimped on the cement put into the foundation?”

Joe’s discussion emphasizes the importance of honesty, preparation, and the thoroughness required to build a lasting foundation for recovery.
