      Thanks Andrew. We are working with good material because the Big Book is the source.

    Thank you so much for your guidance on the 4th Step. I especially appreciate that you used the Big Book as your template, and expanded from exactly what was written there. I also appreciate your succinctness, your addition of your personal story at the end, and your professionalism. Much appreciated!

      Yes it was better than I usually hear... 😆
      My 5th column was a bit different, but it's to much to explain in a text...but overall a very good presentation.

    Powerlessness is the hardest part to accept… the door opens to everything once acceptance begins … thank God for sobriety… if you are a member of AA don’t stop at the steps! Study the traditions and concepts to assure the program stays alive and well for years to come! 🙏

    I refuse to work the steps, especially step 4, with someone I don’t even know, or trust, just to be told everything is MY fault! Then he’d probably share my step 5 with everyone else. I’m a happy, sober, “dry drunk” as far as AA is concerned.

      Thanks for your interest.
      Yes, we do have a workshop that covers steps Six through to Step Nine. But, unfortunately we haven't got around to posting here on CZcams yet. Hopefully we can get that one recorded later this year.
      If you have an AA home group, the group might like to invite us to do the workshop for you via zoom. We are happy to do that if you'd like.
      You can contact us via our website illustratedsteps.org/

      One thing to remember - the 4th Step is not meant to retraumatizing. Move on quickly. Only take the 4th Step once.
      The joy is in the later steps when we start to change.
      Hang on to hope.
      Hope turns to faith after the 5th Step.

    It should be completed one column with all names first before move on to the next one., rather done by row. Because you might not change your perspective at once by completing the same row at once. And it is prayers involved for this is a spiritual program, not an intellectual one.

    • @IllustratedSteps
      @IllustratedSteps  Před rokem +9

      This workshop explicitly suggests that we do one column at a time. And it emphasizes the prayers and the spiritual nature of the Step Four.
