No matter what your problem or self-destructive behavior may be, there
is a solution!
The Twelve Steps are a simple idea: that there is a loving, caring,
all-powerful God. Do not be concerned if you do not presently believe
in or accept this concept. Fully implementing the Twelve Steps produces
results. It is these results - your own experiences - that will lead
you to believe. Keep reading...
The Twelve Steps
- We admit we are powerless over our dependencies and that our lives
have become unmanageable.
- We come to believe that God can restore us to sanity.
- We make a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care
of God.
- We make a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
- We admit to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact
nature of our wrongs.
- We are entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.
- We humbly ask God to remove our shortcomings.
- We make a list of all persons we have harmed and become willing
to make amends to them all.
- We make direct amends to such people wherever possible, except
when to do so would injure them or others.
- We continue to take personal inventory and when we are wrong promptly
admit it.
- We seek through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious
contact with God, as revealed through the person of Jesus Christ,
praying only for knowledge of his will for us and the power to carry
that out.
- Having had a spiritual awakening as a result of these steps, which
is the revelation of Jesus Christ, we try to carry this message to
others and to practice these Biblical principles in all our affairs.
