What do you actually stand for? When life pressures you, what keeps you grounded? Are your beliefs based on unchanging truth—or on feelings and trends? #Those who stand for nothing, will fall for anything.

Why Some Find Recovery and Some Don’t.

We’re going to look at a old story Jesus told in Luke 8, called The Parable of the Sower, and connect it to what the Big Book calls “a design for living that really works.”

Why the Little Things Can Be the Biggest Threats to Our Sobriety. It’s rarely the big life crises that take us out — it’s the little things. In this episode, we explore how small daily irritations and subtle spiritual drift can quietly erode recovery, and how consistent practice in the spiritual program protects us from both elephants and ants alike.

In this episode, we explore Steps 6 & 7 through the lens of masks, personas, and character defects. From Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde to the “actor running the whole show,” we unpack how self-will and false roles keep us trapped—and how surrender invites God to direct the story. When we drop the costume and let Him remove what blocks us, our true selves can finally step into the light.

Fear is the silent saboteur of our peace and growth—an “evil and corroding thread” woven through the fabric our lives. In this episode, we uncover what’s really driving our fears, how self-reliance keeps them alive, and how faith sets us free.

Alcohol isn’t just a drink—it’s a spirit that whispers from the shadows: “maybe this time will be different.” In this episode, we learn how to recognize the whispers early, bring them into the light, and stay free from the ghost of booze.

In this episode of Relevant Recovery, we dive into pages 32–33 of the Big Book — the story of the “man of thirty” who swore off alcohol until retirement. This is a powerful reminder that sobriety is more than staying dry — it’s about finding true freedom through a change of mind and heart.

In this episode we explore what it really means to trust God rather than ourselves. From surrendering control, stepping off the Bridge of Reason onto the shore of Faith, and learning to play the role God assigns us. It’s an honest look at letting go of self-will, questioning less, and trusting more — even when we can’t see the outcome.
