Astrid,
Your story , your truth, and your belief and experiences with God have brought me back.
May God continue to bless you
Spanking your kids causes alcoholism? I disagree, and I don’t like speakers that try to add new purposes to the program and claim their unsubstantiated opinions as facts. Not worth listening to in my opinion
i didn’t here her say that. i was on a hard line myself in which I was constantly critiquing almost everyones shares. What I do is try to listen for the message of hope and relate to what I can. Astrid is a doer. She was more that happy to give me her number so that if my daughter wanted to contact her she could. i have yet to meet two people alike in AA even Big Book guys like myself can become very unhelpul when we sit in judgement. when I do so I cut myself off from the sunlight of the spirit which is really what this is all about. What would God have me Be? Kind tollerant. loving, open, or judgemental, arrogant and argumentative? ( I do get your line of thought though and in part see the truth in what you stated) She is however a dynamic AA member and does tons of work with others and is always willing to be of
service. we are free to agree or disagree
I’m a struggling dry drunk. This was so inspiring to me, there’s still hope, thank
Great awsome thanks
Every newcomer woman I’ve shared Astrid with has loved her honesty and candor! I liked her pointing out when Bill and Bob started this deal they had no idea how complicated the future would become for society’s ills. She has great energy. I doubt she was ever shy.
Doesn’t believe in singleness of purpose and that addicts have no safe place to go. Hello? NA is a powerful program for pure addicts. Not an AA talk
Chill out Brenda
I’m ok with approving this at the moment to illustrate a point:
Discussion is fine, but comments that are argumentative, or have any ill tone won’t be approved.
I’ll permit this comment only to illustrate a point:
Civil discussion is fine, but if it steps into argumentativeness or any derisive tone, the comments won’t be approved.
Astrid I have listened to so many AA Speakers both men and women and I must say that you’re the best that I have ever heard for me you hit on so many new things for me 2 practice or think about or share with others I plan on putting some of your ideas into my recovery I thank you very much God bless us all
I always struggled with drugs and tried NA for awhile and until I found AA and the big book which led me to God I could not stay sober. AA has saved my life and I’m extremely grateful the doors are open to anyone who wants the help.
Stay close to God and the program thank you for sharing your story it was really special for me to hear
