The 12th story, printed only in the First Edition, gives a rare glimpse of how newly sober alcoholics perceived the spiritual aspects of AA demonstrated by early pioneers of the Program. The author of this story was initially visited by AA co-founder Dr. Bob S. and wrote, "My friend was the human agency employed by an all-wise Father to bring me into a pathway of life." Howard L, sober since 1988, presents an inspired reading of this story and encourages listeners to revisit earlier podcast episodes that feature the main chapters of the Big Book.
