I think we can all agree that even if you’re not a member of Alcoholics Anonymous, Sandy Beach is one of the best things to happen for humanity when it comes to helping those who still suffer. I don’t know about anyone else, but in my darkness, I found a way to step out of the dark and into the light through his words and blue prints to life. Thank you Sandy B. May you rest in peace
been listening to him for almost 40 years he died i n a meeting in tampa. his wonderful message has been with me thru darkness and light. thanks , Sandy
Sandy, I can not tell you what your sharing has meant to my sobriety. I have 20 years next month and listen to you all the times. Thank you for sharing your life and sobriety with all of us.
To Sandy Beach: I know you have passed but I feel the universe and God will be able to have you hear this simple message anyway. I just wanted to say thankyou - thankyou for all the things you did while you were on this earth for AA, thankyou for all the help you have given me and we have never even met, thankyou for talking about seeking God so often. It’s given me the courage to speak more freely about God in AA. The big book and God saved my life and continues to do so today at a tiny 6.5 years of sobriety. Thankyou for all the talks you gave over the years - I assure you they are still helping so many people. Forever grateful. Dylan 🙏
Here, The magical power is revealed to solve all of my problems and the jackpot of life’s absolute treasure map is bestowed but you have to change one thing if you do the work then you will have true Joy therefore I continue my daily journey guided by Sandy B because the Spiritual principles fill each and every story he shares. Semper Fi Sandy I will continue to share freely what I have learned from you. TSDD and ODAAT Burley Jeff A
I am a member of AA in NC. This program has brought me freedom from adiction, joy and peace. Every day is now approached with hope. The God of my understanding has been and still is Jesus Christ. My problem was that I did not want to turn my life and addiction over to God. AA taught me that was a necessary step to recovery. I am so glad I took that step. Now there is "joy unspeakable and full of glory".
As I work through AA.. this applies to all walks of life. Let go. LET GOD. I'm 53 years old and in the program. It's never too late for change and GOD!❤❤
Sandy B is an AAs angle now. His words of infinite wisdom live on. Every time I hear them I'm uplifted and reminded of my supporting role. Who knew letting go and letting God was the softer way.
One of the many blessings of sobriety was hearing Sandy in person at the Las Vegas Roundup 28 years ago (it was my 4th sobriety birthday). He spoke about seeking “hide and seek” etc. I’ve never forgotten that lesson and I have been seeking another opportunity to hear him talk about God could and would if he were sought. Thank you RUclips❤❤
Such a beautiful lecture on God. I absolutely enjoyed this whole talk. Thank you for this!!! I have 31 days today and I can't wait for God to show me more of himself!!!!!!!
Congratulations on your "Sandy B. - AA Speaker - " God Is Everything Or Nothing" inspirational thanks for sharing. Morine, Donald, Myola, Rommel & Emma, Graham.🙏Amen.
He is so inspiring! Chose God or chose NOTHING! We are nothing without God at the helm leading and guiding us. He alone, loves us more than anything we can imagine or that we are worthy. His Mercy and Grace is never ending and I am so thankful for that!! God bless all of you
Which one of the 4000something man made gods? What makes your preferred version of invisible supernatural superbeeing the correct one? I assume you don't believe in Allah? Or Zeus? You have your Culture with an anthropomorphic, man made fable. Evidence? Nada. No thanks, I rather not lie to myself.
thank you sandy b. you strenghten me like a father figure especially around god. 16 years sober this year but have put alcohol and people esp.family before GOD. thank you
This is real shit. I'm just 4 months sober and that part on God phenomenon is spot on. I'm not religious at all, atheist less and less nowadays technically I suppose lol. Before I first started actually working AA and reading the book the word god turned me off constantly, didn't make me mad but it was frustrating. I wouldn't be caught dead saying the word god, but as time went on "higher power" has just started feeling too broad and too weak a word for what I have experienced. Now I accidentally find myself saying god constantly. Just seeing how everything internally and externally has changed, has created a definition of god that can't be put into to words for me. Today I say I don't know what it is, but I believe in the existence of god, and where I used to think how can I, now I think how can I not. I'm still not religious but man there are amazing things going on in my life that came from something much grander than me, that I know for sure. I wonder what will come next. Great talk by Sandy beach, he a real goat.
I pray this finds you still sober and now knowing who god is and where he resides! You write well and I bet you tell a great story , one day you may be speaking like Sandy B. God bless you....
It’s 8 years since this video was published on You Tube! Today, I’m listening to it! My first sponsor used to share that if he could have had any other publication conference approved, it would be the Dictionary! He cut my seeking time dramatically! God as We understood Him!! He said, go look the word Him up in the dictionary! The Dictionary definition of Him = Male Person! Have I given you a clue? God Bless anyone who finds this message! A simple program for complicated people! Keep it Simple!
Sandy B. is on to something very important which Jung noted earlier in his correspondence with Bill W. concerning the role that the search for "ecstasis" and "spiritus" plays in the lives of many alcoholics. As Eric Clapton once said, when he stopped alcohol and heroin it left "a hole in his soul the size of God." That is certainly what I was thirsting for; not a blackout but union with the Divine in the only way I knew. AA as such does not fill that void, but is the best way I know for people like me to get in touch with the "real thing" that we were searching for all along. Call me an "AA addict."
The built in forgetter! ( I do recall having a spiritual experience) Hearing this talk for the first time; I was alone & quieted…. 5-17-04 This year my 20:20 😮❤🎉thank you for this day! Ps: if your listening to this, a gentle reminder & one that’s NOT SO MUCH it’s a 12 step program!
God is just a word that was created by men. But there is a power and I don't think it cares what we call it as long as we attach ourselves to it. I call it the spirit of the universe
Man I'm trying. I just finished my 5th step it's hard tho, right after my 5th step I had a feeling everything was gonna be aight an I didn't wanna drink or use but I'm still living in alot of fear I'm hoping shit gets better because I'm tryna my hardest to get this deal
My question is “which is harder?”. Is it working the program or living as an active alcoholic/addict? Keep working them brother and remember when working the 5th we should “withhold nothing”. God be with you.
It gets so much better - just hold on and keep showing up and doing the work. You will wake up one day living a life of your dreams and be so happy you never gave up ♥️
My God is both everything ‘and’ nothing.. my God both exists and doesn’t exist. This God of mine guides me, all the time just like my God guides the stars and galaxies and our planet 🌎 .. this is how I understand my God.
I think we can all agree that even if you’re not a member of Alcoholics Anonymous, Sandy Beach is one of the best things to happen for humanity when it comes to helping those who still suffer.

God speaks to me through Sandy B. I think I'm starting to get glimpses of "it". ✨ Thank you, God and Sandy B.!
I had the pleasure of hearing him speak, shaking his and Clancy's hand, and attending his funeral. His light was unmistakable!

This man once came to Iceland to speak. He has made a impact on my life for sure. Thank you Sandy B.
I went to Iceland and a Eskimo showed up with a bottle of scotch and ruined everything

This guy has done just as much as Joe and Charlie have to touch the hearts of sick alcoholics and begin to heal.
Thank you Sandy for transmitting the message so simply 🙏🏼💥🔥💪🏽♥️🏪

You have your Culture with an anthropomorphic, man made fable.

@@Raydensheraj surely the proof of the pudding is in the eating? If your life has been changed for the better, then shouldn’t this be applauded?
Mmmmmm pudding
Thanks, Sandy Beach. I can't stop listening to you.
thank you sandy b. you strenghten me like a father figure especially around god. 16 years sober this year but have put alcohol and people esp.family before GOD. thank you
Odomtology. Thank you. AA meetings in heaven 😊 can't wait
Praying for God’s will was one the first things that someone in AA suggested- it was new concept which saved my life
RIP Sandy, thank you for aiding me in my sobriety 🩷
Thank you for your service sandy b. Bob d. Clancy & Sister bea
I’ve started living out the idea of “if I don’t like not getting my way then maybe I shouldn’t have a way”. It works 100 times out of 100.

Thank you Sandy

it’s a 12 step program!
Im actually in N.A but prefer most of the time listening to guys like sandy and other A.A oldtimers.
This reminds me of a saying an old timer in my group says NA, AA, as long it’s not the DA 😂
What a spiritual giant. 🙏💙
Thank you ALL for being here when I need a recharge of my spiritual batteries,
Thankyou for this amazing share...His grace just gets more and more amazing! Its page 25 that it speaks of God entering our hearts. God Bless you all.

I just want this talk deep in my heart. Thank you.
Sandy states the obvious that most of are not willing to believe

+alnosaints its impossible to understand others at times so dont bother my friend....
Some people cant handle Truth...

Steps six.
Thanks Sandy!
I loved this lecture it had a lot of humor to a serious issue.
Thanks for sharing
God is just a word that was created by men. But there is a power and I don't think it cares what we call it as long as we attach ourselves to it. I call it the spirit of the universe
He saved my life

I enjoy your story and respect your yrs of sobriety. God Bless you

Just started this recording and I have to say, "It's not a choice when you understand that there is no god."
Never understood how atheist try to make AA Godless. Take God out of AA and you have no program.
Aw poor guy losing his dog ❤
Th word god is improper and any word is improper. Without something there is nothing and and with something there is everything.
