One of the Twelve Promises of AA tells us: We will comprehend the word serenity and we will know peace.

When we first come into recovery our expectation for a life free from crippling dependencies is huge.

Jesus came to earth when the nation of Israel was ruled by Rome.

Some people throw surprise parties to celebrate notable anniversaries of friends.

In recovery, as well as in addiction, one can have a victim mentality.

Audio for “KEEP COMING BACK. IT WORKS IF YOU WORK IT” At the end of many recovery meetings we say the words, “Keep coming back.

It does not take much time in recovery for us to realize how much better life can be than we ever thought possible.

We lost our way. That's an obvious fact. We fell into an addictive and destructive lifestyle.
