Kort shares how his sobriety, beginning in 1999, grew from despair into lasting recovery through working the Twelve Steps directly from the Big Book. He described failed early attempts to stay sober with routines like swimming and reading, until he embraced sponsorship and spiritual action that led to a profound shift in perspective. Over the years, he’s sponsored many men, learning to balance sincerity with boundaries, focusing not on rigid rules but on principles and genuine connection with God and others. His story highlighted humility, the dangers of arrogance in sponsorship, and the life-saving power of carrying the message—reminding us that recovery is not about prestige or perfection, but about staying sober by helping the next alcoholic.
