from Sober Sunrise - AA Speaker Podcast · host Sober Sunrise

John H. from Wildwood, NJ speaking at the Aberdeen Wednesday Night Group's Quarterly Meeting in Aberdeen, SD - 2008 Visit our merch and help support the channel🧡 Sober Sunrise Merch Visit our website - Sober-Sunrise.com John shares a raw, unforgettable AA story that traces his life from a fear-filled alcoholic childhood and early drinking relief through crime, violence, prison, homelessness, repeated bottom-after-bottoms, and utter emotional bankruptcy, before finally finding real sobriety through Alcoholics Anonymous as a program of action—not meetings alone; by learning the difference between the fellowship and the program, taking the Steps with a sponsor, praying even in disbelief, and acting his way into new thinking, John rebuilt his life from the ground up and has lived sober since May 19, 1973—showing that AA is not about just seeing the parade, but stepping inside the tent and truly living.
