Bart R. from Sedona, AZ speaking at the 68th Duluth roundup in Duluth, MN - September 22nd 2013

Visit our website - Sober-Sunrise.com

From sneaking alcohol in grade school to repeated detentions and juvenile jails, Bart describes how alcohol ruled every decision—costing him freedom, trust, and dignity. Even as an adult, he tried jobs, relationships, and sheer willpower, but the craving always returned. What changed was finding the Big Book and a sponsor who walked him through the steps: learning about the physical craving, mental obsession, and spiritual malady gave him clarity on why he drank and what to do about it. He spoke of hitting a true bottom—not measured by arrests or losses, but by admitting deep inside that he was alcoholic. Through surrender, inventories, amends, and daily step work, he rebuilt his life: reconciling with family, finding freedom from rage through Step Ten, and even becoming a father active in service. Today he describes himself as a “recovered alcoholic,” living proof that with God, the steps, and service, anyone can move from despair to usefulness and joy.
