AA Speaker - Linda R. - Charlottesville, VA - 2005 - Part 2

Linda R. from Indianapolis, IN doing a workshop titled "A Day In The Big Book" in Charlottesville, VA - April 9th 2005 Drop a couple dollars in our virtual basket: Sober-Sunrise.com In Part 2 of "A Day in the Big Book", Linda continues her deep dive into the steps, bringing warmth and clarity to the often-misunderstood process of surrender and faith. She breaks down Step 3 with humor and honesty, sharing how she struggled to grasp the concept of turning her will and life over to a higher power. Instead of needing to fully understand God, she realizes she only has to make a decision—one that allows her to stop managing every detail of life and begin trusting in something greater. Linda illustrates this shift with real-life moments, from a simple household frustration to a health scare, showing how applying these principles can transform fear into faith. She also unpacks Step 4, guiding listeners through inventory with practical examples, reminding them that it's not about discovering who they are but shedding the false self they've built. Her reflections highlight how the steps don’t just stop at getting sober—they offer a path to real freedom, emotional peace, and a life of spiritual connection. Music: Deep by KaizanBlu
