Book Overview

The words of this book's title are said aloud every day by thousands of people meeting together to help each other recover from addictions. The addictions may be to alcohol or cocaine, gambling or food, violence or sex and love, but the path to recovery is the same. This is a book of plain-spoken wisdom for people with addictions and people who love them. Joe McQ has been a student of the Twelve Steps for twenty-eight years. He, like tens of thousands...

Best Step Book Ever

My name is Rita H and I just celebrated 17 years in the program.I found the "The Steps We Took" in my 8th year. It is the best explaination of the steps I have ever read. My whole program took on a new dynamic after I started to apply the principals as stated in this book.TSWT is a TRUE companion book to the Big Book. Someone finally wrote down the directions on how to work the steps.I have purcahsed at least 25 copies of this book in the last 10 years. I also sponsor right out of it. I now have the confidence to "carry the message" without reservation. I use it to sponsor co-dependants and ACAs as well.One day I plan to go to a Big Book Seminar and thank Joe McQ in person. His book and his thoughts on the program has given me a life of recovery filled with quality and dignity.

Really Good Book

This is a great book by someone who knows. I would also recommend the book An Encounter With A Prophet for someone who know about the spiritual side

Practical Instruction For Working The Steps

This book is a classic. Joe McQ clearly understands theimplication and application of AA's spiritual program of action. Ihighly recommend this book. -- Frank D., Author of The Annotated AAHandbook.

It's the best, I take my sponsees through the steps in it.

the book has helped me so much. I wish someone had showed me the book when I first got sober cause it has helped me work the steps and better understand the Big Book.

An easy "How to do it" workbook for the 12 Steps

I was fortunate to have had a chance to hear Joe McQ on tape in 1990, while I was in India. The contents of those tapes (which are largly reproduced in this book), changed my life forever. In this book, using clear, simple and understandable terms, Joe translates the spiritual essence of the Steps into an extremely do-able set of practical instructions, which; if followed precisely, will ensure a life free from the ravages of one's particular addiction. With plenty of worksheets and visually pleasing graphics, the process is fluid and gently guides the student along the well-worn path of the steps, to the oft-achieved destination of freedom and sobriety. I strongly recommend this book to people who are getting "stuck" in "listless" sobriety, and even more so for those who are unable to stay sober, inspite of attendance at meetings, and repeated visits ot detox's/centers. May I humbly suggest that you buy a Big Book, Joe's Book and get a Sponsor who has worked these steps and is familiar with the "program"? With grattitude and good wishes.
