Closing Arguments: For Twelve-Stepping Lawyers
As lawyers, we understand contracts; we draft them and interpret them.
Contracts are promises; promises are contracts.
Conducting a clause-by-clause analysis, we can see truths and meanings, often overlooked. This is a deeper legalistic dive into a very important contract.
These small essays on our sobriety contact are "respectfully submitted."
The author hopes and prays that you enjoy them.
Remember the promise made by Bill H and "lawyers that stick around AA tend to do very well in the end."

Ask, and Crooks delivers
Highly recommend. For those seeking a closer connection with God, or however one sees the Higher Authority, this book is brilliant. It’s not mumbo jumbo. I have struggled. But Andy’s insights, his breakdowns of prayers in “Closing Arguments”, are original, refreshing and real.
