24 years sober and just went through the worst "emotional sobriety relapse" ever! It was in the making for at least 2 years. I didn't drink but I was still very - very ill. All because I DID NOT CHOOSE GOD! Oh, I love God, I talk to Him and seek Him. But I was so out there in FEAR that He was pushed out. Honestly, it was being in a sober blackout! I don't know if you can relate but I am on the mend and looking to re-work my steps on ALL those fears. They were ALL fear based. There is a reason we do a fears list in our 4th step. I am ready to look again... work again... change again.

This is a great message. When he talks about the fact there’s no point to regretting mistakes he’s talking about how free will is an illusion. You did what you did because in that moment it’s all you could do. It’s very freeing to understand this. I love Sandy. One of the best AA speakers ever.

I am Alanon and just love listening to Sandy. I wish my dad would have heard him maybe he would have quit drinking.

Right now i am going through “the test.” And im grateful.

Most amazing share I've heard yet.

Dearest sandy, The gift of AA keeps giving thanx to you and so many. Beyond this life you help me everyday.

Spiritual life works, which breeds illusion you don't need it. It's only a theory until you pass some tests. So ask for MORE help. Work the 6th n 7th on loop. Problems Not resolved, removed by perspective shift

Just do alot of listening.

I FOUND THAT I HAD TO LEARN TO LISTEN.

Sandy should considered for adding a 13th Legacy....All his talks

This man obviously has a tremendous amount of both sobriety and serenity and surely lives in conscious contact with his Higher Power (G-d). I just with he, and a lot of other speakers for that matter, would not share there philosophy about reality and or the nature of G-d.

Need a sponsor I need sponsee, how convenient...the fear you can break down by writing it down each fear is stemming from another eventually you'll find all your fears are originated from 1 single fear of death. You have to get to a place where it's 2nd nature to depend on God you don't have to ask him to do songs he's already gonna do this will reduce your praying for certain things but you'll always find comfort in prayer. I need out of my comfort zone to grow my character therefore I simply understand everything is God's will and do the next right thing

He was referencing non AA literature I believe. I think AAs often are intellectually incurious and don't look beyond the horizon of their official literature. Bill W himself is a perfect argument against this sort of attitude, one glance at the titles in his library and you can see that he read widely from a variety of authors and sources. There is a reference in one of the books, I think maybe as bill sees it, that refers to AA as a spiritual kindergarten of sorts. It gives us our orientation and a toolkit but we are meant to search more fully and resolutely for God and to grow in our understanding and love of him

I like how he says he make up that there is no God.
