With warmth, wit, and deep reverence for AA’s legacy, Searcy shares a remarkable 54-year journey of sobriety rooted in humility, service, and faith. Raised in rural West Texas and shaped by a Baptist upbringing, his drinking began in semi-pro baseball and escalated through corporate life until it became a compulsion. After finding AA in 1946, he played a foundational role in spreading the program across Texas and forming lasting ties with AA co-founders, including being personally sponsored by Bill Wilson. Through humor and history, he underscores the spiritual heart of AA—“trust God, clean house, and help others”—and passionately urges both old-timers and newcomers to preserve the fellowship's traditions. Searcy's life is a testament to the power of surrender, laughter, and unwavering dedication to carrying the message forward.
