Teachings:
We believe that we all need a relationship with a higher power. We will use traditional church teachings to learn about morals. We will also utilize texts from recovery programs. After all, we are all recovering from something. We will discuss how these texts teach universal truths that apply to people with and without addiction. Other outside texts may be discussed and added as the group grows. These texts will be added using our democratic process, over time.
We will discuss various texts including:
- The Bible
- 12 Steps & 12 Traditions
- The Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous
- As Bill Sees It
- The Five Love Languages by Gary Chapman
- Jesus Calling by Sarah Young
- The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle
- Drop the Rock by Sara S. and Todd W.
- Breathing Underwater by Richard Rohr
The guiding principles for book selections can be that the text should assist the group with:
- Deepening our connection to a higher power
- Becoming a better person
- Be inclusive of all members, not exclusionary in any way
The group can decide to add books with votes. It can also decide to take a book off of the list with votes. The majority rules.
