Part 1 - Kenny D. from Seattle, WA doing a 12-step spiritual retreat in Santa Fe, NM - December 8th 2006 Visit our website - Sober-Sunrise.com Kenny shares a deeply moving account of his descent into alcoholism and his eventual recovery, showing how grace and service replaced years of self-destruction. Born into chaos and addiction, he began drinking at twelve, quickly spiraled through violence, homelessness, and IV drug use, and nearly died in motel fires and dark alleys, spiritually and physically bankrupt. His mother’s love and prayers couldn’t reach him until, by what he calls divine intervention, AA members offered him detox and a chance at life. Through their generosity and the Big Book’s principles, he found freedom from obsession and the compulsion to drink, learning humility, gratitude, and purpose through sponsoring others. Now decades sober, Kenny lives with peace, family, and faith—proof that no matter how far one falls, a life once driven by despair can be transformed into one of service, healing, and spiritual connection.
