love father sam... the first time i heard him share was sitting in rehab..detoxing with cold and hot chills ...sweating ...dreaming of being anywhere else than where I was... but i thank God for that rehab and to hear this exact speaker tape... i will never forget... thanks for staying..💜💜💜
I'm having to redo my looks for myself and trim down due to loss of teeth and 40pound weight gain plus bad hair cut and weeding out unwanted flimflam so called meds plus exercise Antabuse and 7 days in towards no Crack or liquor I walk and ride a bike but the weight is making me feel inadequate yet I'm not giving up its just maddening
Father Sam is real as this affliction gets, love the way he does not sugarcoat his alcoholism. The same alcoholic nature I have produced in this life has brought him down as it has done the same to me.. However, amen whatever goes down must come up, my experience has smashed the idea that I can drink and drug. And for that I'm forever grateful. Thanks Father Sam for springing fourth these thoughts in my mind, by simply sharing your story.
I got such a sense of identification from this share. Its so strange and strong. Its given me the courage to return to Meetings. God bless this man and the Fellowship
In the process of me listening to this Inspiritual NA Speaker. Has completely change the way I'm thinking. I know GOD dont want me to use no DRUGS, hurt no one or hurt myself. I have the desire to not use DRUGS. I do have the desire to hurt someone. I'm having a problem to learn how to love people. That comes from me not trusting poeple. I know I'm not able to love everyone. I'm not able to trust everyone. All my TRUST is in GOD. I'm going to continue to stay humble. I know I can't get to high. I can't get to low. I stay somewhere in the middle.
I tried everything else first too.. whoa first couple mins in and I already identify AS LONG AS THE TIES THAT BIND US TOGETHER ARE STRONGER THAN THOSE THAT TEAR US APART *ALL WILL BE WELL* needed this I can go to bed after a sleepless night thankyou
Father Sam!! Hello this is one of your greatful!!! Sponsies from Baltimore Maryland I thank my higher power for placing me in you life I also thank you for taking out time for me when I needed you!!! Yvette P.
When you confess your sins the devil loses his stronghold. Isolation is his game 🎯. Yo this dude is bananas 🧐. May GOD heal him and all of us addicts. Takes real courage for a man to speak as he has.
I just found this video after finding a bottle of codeine while I'm 1 month away from completing my treatment program I can't thank you enough for making this video it saved me from getting locked up or sent to a residential program

Where was this? An NA convention? I'm fighting to stat sober and been sober for about a month and a half. I'm very happy to see that with the religious/higher power videos I've been watching, now I can also hear AA/NA meetings on RUclips.
Father Sam came and spent a weekend with us at a recovery house and treatment program I was in ran by Catholics in Salisbury Maryland. He shared his personal story with about a group of eight of us that were in the program before he spoke at a NA meeting where he was a guest speaker. The main counselor there was a good friend of his from Baltimore. His story was so crazy that he had me go get a big butcher knife from the kitchen and I slept with it and my bed with me the whole weekend he was there LOL LOL LOL. I said this old man crazy.
I love the speaker tapes on youtube, but I was thinking it would be helpful if you could put the date and location of the lead in the comments section. I suppose in the big scheme of things, it's only a small thing, but I'm always left wondering..
There is bigger success rate in the 12 steps method then any other recovery program available. i am an addict who tried religion , positive thinking , physcology. nothing worked . only the love and fellowship of other recovering addicts kept me from death on the streets.those who knock the program have no idea what real addiction is about.sorry i mean no disrespect.a gratefull NA member
thank you I almost died in the disease of addiction know it's real yes I had a choice in the beginning but not in the end, and I know I was an addict before I ever used...God an the fellowship of NA are the only reason I'm still alive
Im excited about my sobriety with all its ups and downs.this desease wants me to die..fuck that!!!!.after 25yrs i got 3 funky days..but you know what?? Prayeing,getting on my knees,got me crying like a baby..Im so ready....my winshields bigger then my rear view mirror...
I wrote the comment 7 months ago....I was beginning to go soft on steppers, cos I know a few good ones...when I wrote the comment....I knew the reply...I've been in the cult, I have lotsa t-shirts...."we do recover" n nice, n the central message is nice!!!! It's a spiritual problem which is kept at bay working a program, by meetings, that's not a disease man!!! Peace, n goodwill to you n ur loved ones.
addict from Huntsville Alabama with The Disease of addiction...used believe it wasn't...does it even matter all I know is this shit kills an destroys everything u love dearest before it finishes u... disease or not who gives a damn I'm just glad to be alive I'm a damn miracle an everyday is a gift.....thank God for second chances an thank God for Na
I’m in recovery and attend NA meetings. Baptized Catholic. Jesuit educated. This man should not be a priest nor a speaker on behalf of NA. Healthy people in recovery do not go into this kind of graphic detail about what they use or how they use, or their masochistic sexual proclivities. Too much gory, disturbing, and graphic detail under the guise of “authenticity”. This is someone that is engaging in attention seeking behavior. It isn’t funny or authentic. It’s disgusting. I wouldn’t let this guy anywhere near a child, a church, or a NA hall. Period. NA needs to be accountable. This is not recovery. This is what a predator sounds like and behaves like. Children come to our meetings. I wouldn’t let this guy anywhere near my children or any child for that matter. This is scary. I’m in awe this was posted as a message of heathy recovery. This is a guy getting off on shocking people and getting off on people not knowing what he really is….a manipulator and a predator. Taking the drugs away will not fix someone like this.

It's cool, Damien doesn't know what the word means so he is being short and rude. A good rule of life is don't argue with stupid people, they will bring you down to their level and beat with you experience.

This message is one of hope that no addicts needs to continue to suffer
Where is Father Sam today? Time after time & year after year I find myself going back to hear his powerful voice & impactful journey.
I’m just now hearing it for the first time!

Its powerful to here honesty and that this disease spares no one.
But the answer lays with your relationship with God and drawing power from him.
most powerful NA speech I ever heard ...

I 100% agree with you
happy to finally find someone that has common sense
My thinking was warped long before before I touched a drink
DEEP
How’s Father Sam doing these days?
I too thought my mother did not love me. The reason I have a problem with perception
Are there any speakers in spanish
North America may be very rich compared to rest of the world but United States snd Canada has terrible social poverty.
