Letter From Jeanette

Posted by Judith Kastle on

Greetings from Monterey CA…!I am listening to your podcast (via Spotify). I really appreciate that you emphasize sticking to what is in the big book…  along with your experiences--still based on, guided by the big book.

Letter From Jose

Posted by Judith Kastle on

Hello again Clay!I wanted to thank you for sharing all those materials with us. People have been loving the format and the material.

The idea that we’re not doomed to be worse off than others, is something I’ve been trying to push because any other way just sounds so sad. That we’re being punished for being alcoholics with extra f’d up brains is not what the book says. You’ve hammered that message home for...
