Staying Sober Without God The Practical 12 Steps to LongTerm Recovery from Alcoholism and Addictions Jeffrey Munn 9781733588003 Books Reviews
- I was pleasantly surprised by what I read in this book. As a Christian I came into reading this with an open mind. I had read a lot of 12 step literature before and had attended some Al-Anon meetings in the past. This book has been the best book I have read to date on helping me to understand the addicted mind. The author did not put down Christians at all - like some would expect. He wove an adaptation of the 12 steps to fit his (and others’) needs. I believe it was masterfully done. The detail and thought that went into the way things are worded is phenomenal. I learned so very much. I especially liked the fact of the author touching on the important issue of the victim mentality. Also the resources mentioned is an awesome added touch for further learning.
- I felt like the author knew me personally. He gave me a way to use the 12 Steps for recovery without forcing me to believe in a god that I'm not sure I believe in. Well done.
- I'm writing a book in the same space and am thrilled to see another author/recovery specialist teach non-religious steps that include responsibility and practicality.
Great job! - I have been a 12 step program for close to 5 years and this is the first time I feel like the steps apply to me and my concept of sobriety. I, too, appreciate the original steps and the history of recovery it has produced, but this approach fits me like a glove.
- This book is a practical guide to a better life whether or not you have an addiction. It takes the reliance on God out of the 12 steps.
