Carl P. from Atlanta, GA speaking at the Fellowship of the Spirit in Conyers, GA - April 6th 2014

Visit our website - Sober-Sunrise.com

Carl traces a restless childhood—constant moves, isolation, and a mind that never felt comfortable—into full-blown addiction where alcohol and cocaine became the only reliable relief and then the wrecking ball for every job, home, and relationship he touched. He shows how “white-knuckle” stints in treatment and halfway houses failed because mere sincerity and fellowship couldn’t overcome a body that craved and a mind that obsessed; the breakthrough came when he finally recognized the illness for what it was and became willing to take disciplined spiritual action even when it didn’t make sense. From there he leans into rigorous inventory, amends, daily practice, and a tight, accountability-heavy home group he helped found that cycles back through the work repeatedly and challenges the belief systems—especially about what it means to be a man—that once ran his life. The result: real freedom, deep friendships, useful service, and steady growth in health, career, and purpose. The life-importance message: pain can become power when you surrender, do the hard interior work, and stay in a community that demands honesty and action.

Music: Deep by KaizanBlu
