Zeroing in on the higher power

For those already in a 12 step program and want to deepen their awareness of their higher power, this book may be what you are looking for. It starts with the first step,of course, and substitutes sin as the root of our unmanagability.Make no mistake about it, this book identifies the higher power at it's source, it is the the Christian God and His Son Jesus. It goes on through the remaining 11 steps using the scriptures and our human experience to help one reach another level of spiritual wholeness. It ends each chapter with discussion questions that would facilitate a groups' disscusions. This book adheares to the prinicple that we can't do it alone, and should have a sponser, a group, and a commitment. Anyone familier with the 12 step meeting format could easily use the prinicples laid forth to conduct meetings. Anyone not familier with 12 step meetings that would like to form a group using the ideas presented,would benifit in attending many AA meetings to understand the group dynamics.Make sure that the meeting you're attending is an "open" meeting and visitors are welcome.Finally, as in any 12 step program,it ain't easy and whomever you chose to do it with should be a trusted confidont
