12 Steps with Jesus

by Don Williams

Don Williams powerfully relates in 12 Steps with Jesus that by allowing Jesus to fill the emptiness that leads to addictive behavior, readers can leave addiction in the dust! Churches must lead people to dependence on Jesus. When we give ourselves wholly to Christ, He will fill us wholly, replacing the hollowness that results in addictions. In twelve practical steps, Williams reveals how to achieve spiritual fulfillment in Christ, discover freedom from addiction, and embrace the abundant life that God promises to all of His followers.

[Tony Ferguson · Rating 4 out of 5]

Thoroughly enjoyed this book and highly recommend for anyone looking for a Jesus centered approach to the 12 program of AA. I am an incredible believer in the 12 step program and how it can be applied to everyone because we all are addicted to something. This book is honest and does a great work exploring our addictive tendencies and those things that become idols in our lives. We can be addicted to alcohol, money, drugs, people approval,, fame and even church - the list is large. There is freedom in Jesus as we learn how to rest in His love and forgiveness and give up control of our own lives to Him who is our creator. This book is also very easy to read and flows extremely well. If you want to explore the 12 steps and even learn that it was based on believing in Jesus then take a look and enjoy.

This book is said to be based on the 12 Steps of AA but the only thing it shares in common with those steps is the number 12. Not a bad supplement to a recovery program but not sufficient on its own to overcome addiction.
