Thank god for this whole mess we’re in right now, and I say that in the most sincere way. If hadn’t forced to look out for the true message of this program without the benefit of groups(all ‘virtually’ offered in my area for part of this thing) I wouldn’t have gotten the message. I still have lots of work to do with this program, but thanks to improving my ‘conscious contact with god’ the desire to drink has been in a precipitous retreat. Prayer, mediation, and god along with the tears they seem to have brought have been the solution, god really could if he were sought. Amen and thank you Chris R
Chris R answered many of my questions plus helped me understand I’m lucky to still be sober even though I haven’t sponsored anyone or take them through all 12 steps. I have 12 1/2 yrs. sober but was baffled why “the women don’t want me to sponsor them” and now I understand this is a misperception on my part. Plus I understand sponsorship is about getting them through the steps not using the women to show off. Meetings, Meetings, Meetings almost killed me. Today I go to two women’s meetings, step and big book, because I learned God has saved my life and now it’s up to me to save another. I would love more tapes on sponsorship. Thank you
Donna, on the home page there’s a link to a slew of tapes that contain sponsorship as a topic…
Chris shoots straight up and hard. His approach has helped my recovery immensely. I appreciate him sharing his focus on the book and the steps, the way the program was meant to be worked.
