The soul of sponsorship

*The Soul of Sponsorship* explores the relationship of Bill Wilson, cofounder of Alcoholics Anonymous, and his spiritual adviser and friend, Father Ed Dowling, and Irish Catholic Jesuit priest who limped with a cane into a New York AA clubhouse one sleet-filled November night in 1940. Bill's relationship with Father Ed had an profound, positive effect on his life and his writings for AA.
It was through Father Ed that Bill learned to listen to his desires, be aware of the inner dynamics, and time in to the action of God within. These two "fellow travelers" blessed each other with perhaps the greatest figt that friends can give one another: calling on each other to know who he is- before God.
