I’ve been in recovery (clean) for 8 years on 11/04/24, I really enjoyed doing this book study. I learned things that I had never considered before and it has helped me through the most difficult time of my life since in recovery. The gift of being powerless has been exceptionally valuable. Also, I have taken information from this and shared it with my “other” 12 step program. This book has also helped me in my faith and allowed me to grow in my relationship with God and grow in my recovery.
