Chris and Steve's powerful weekend sessions at the Wilson House offer a heartfelt and often humorous exploration of Step One and Step Two of Alcoholics Anonymous. Chris shares the brutal honesty of his drinking history—escalating from chaotic party years to ten years of isolated blackout drinking—and how his eventual spiritual awakening came only after a painful relapse, when he was willing to do everything he once resisted: get a sponsor, join a home group, and work the steps thoroughly. Steve brings deep insight into the emotional and spiritual unmanageability of alcoholism—describing the painful self-consciousness, fear of disconnection, and ego-driven isolation that plagued him even before he drank. Together, they break down alcoholism not just as a physical craving and mental obsession, but as a spiritual illness rooted in selfishness, fear, and separation from God. Their message is clear: the AA solution isn’t intellectual—it's experiential, rooted in surrender, honest inventory, and a willingness to develop a conscious relationship with a higher power. Through humor, grit, and grace, both men paint a picture of redemption—a life of usefulness, freedom, and spiritual wholeness born not from trying harder, but from giving up and letting a power greater than themselves lead the way.
