David has affected me through his sobriety and my hope is that I may help spread his valuable experiences to you who may be looking for this perspective on what is to me the greatest gift we alcoholics have been given: a way to live freely without the insanity of a dehydrated spiritual life. Josh Brolin, actor When I first got sober, I had a hard time with the God thing in AA. As far as I was concerned, the whole idea of God was great in theory, but in practice, a complete let-down. In the rooms, there was so much talk about God, I thought I could not do this simple program. Then some wise person pointed out to me that there was certainly a power greater than I (because if not, we're all fucked), but it didn't have to look like the God of my youth; it didn't even have to be called God . What a relief. David Vartabedian has taken this understanding and elucidated it so that through his words, even the hardened, God-denying alcoholic can find her or his way to the most liberating condition available to human being: sobriety.
