In this powerful talk, Dave shares how true recovery in Alcoholics Anonymous is not found behind a podium but in living the Steps daily—especially Step Three—by turning one’s entire life over to God through service to others, illustrating through deeply personal stories how fear, financial insecurity, and life’s “dismal afternoons” were repeatedly relieved when he resolutely helped another alcoholic, kept close to his Higher Power, and cleaned up the past, leading to sobriety, spiritual growth, restored serenity, strengthened marriage with Norma, and a lived experience of the Big Book promise that when we prioritize our primary purpose, we are “in tow” and our lives are managed in remarkable ways beyond our own planning
