I Didn’t Come to Get Sober — I Came to Be Changed - AA Speaker - Don P. - Camden, ME

Don P. explains why simply not drinking isn’t enough — and how real recovery begins with complete surrender, spiritual action, and helping others. Don P. from Aurora, CO at the 6th Annual Big Book Weekend at Tanglewood in Camden, ME - June 14th 2003 Visit our merch and help support the channel🧡 Sober Sunrise Merch Visit our website - Sober-Sunrise.com Don P. delivers a direct and deeply grounded Alcoholics Anonymous message on the difference between being sober and truly recovering. Drawing from the Big Book and decades of experience, he shares why the Twelve Steps are preparation for the real work of helping others, why half-measures fail, and how lasting freedom comes through full surrender to a Higher Power. With humor, clarity, and spiritual depth, Don reminds us that alcoholism centers in the mind, that we are powerless over the first drink, and that real transformation happens when we stop managing life ourselves and allow God to work through us. His message calls for courage, humility, and a willingness to be changed — not just abstinent. Music: Deep by KaizanBlu
