Stop Beating Ourselves Up
Submitted by jongiunta on Wed, 09/12/2007 - 18:51.I was prompted recently to re read Emmet Fox’ “Alter Your Life.”
I found the following so poignant I had to share.
Step Eleven - Big Book
Submitted by jongiunta on Tue, 08/07/2007 - 19:20.At our Monday Night Book Study some men were interested in the Prayer and Mediation outline we were discussing. Please open the link below and print if you are interested.
This has been a part of my seeking since my first few months and I found, for me, very centering. Of course I added literature, including the 24 Hour Book, Touchstones, The Bible, The Upper Room, Around the Year, Daily Reflections, The Grapevine, Medicine Cards, and many other resources, to this daily ritual as many of us do.

The Seven Main Aspects of God
Submitted by jongiunta on Tue, 08/07/2007 - 19:10.THE SEVEN MAIN ASPECTS OF GOD
First of all we must understand GOD is not a superior kind
of man. GOD is spirit and truth. This simply means to get a spiritual
understanding of his nature. To define GOD would be to limit Him, but we can
gain an excellent knowledge of GOD by discovering aspects of His nature.

Old Time AA
Submitted by jongiunta on Sat, 07/14/2007 - 19:09.For years my sponsor has been speaking of "old time AA" (along with Jimmy Marino, Joe McCoy and Ed Holland) and recovery rates at 75%, etc. They of course, have been drilling the one messsage into my thick head since my first month sober. It took me the first few years to shed my prejudice but He gave me the ultimate willingness to an open mind. The beauty of our program is He comes to us when we are ready not when someone tells us when it should happen.

Take Step Eleven
Submitted by jongiunta on Sat, 07/07/2007 - 16:28.I have been reflecting on this "Langauge of the Heart Article" a lot lately
and spreading the message of the article as well. It is fairly cut and dry.
Below is just a portion of the article that answers the age old question of "why am I not getting this thing?'
or "I feel disconnected" or "blah, blah, blah" (I attached the entire writing)
