12 Step Me

Our group's birthday is September 4, 2010.

Our group is like most AA groups: We hold business meetings, and obtain group conscience for any issues, and use the Concepts of Service to the extent we are able. Issues that may affect the site owner's personal liability or the liability of any group member are understandably not handled at the group level.

Any member of Alcoholics Anonymous may join our group. To have voting rights, you must be a regularly attending member for at least 30 days.

Any member who would like to chair or perform other service work may contact admin@12stepme.org.

SoberNuggets

This is simply a space for recovering alcoholics and addicts to share the joys, struggles and realities of a sober life. Please feel free to read, write, share but most of all, enjoy.

I have been sober and drug free since Jan 28th, 1996, thanks to HP and AA. At Easter Vigil 2007 I was baptized and confirmed into the Catholic Church, amazing! Thanks to HP and AA!

The International Christian Recovery Coalition

The International Christian Recovery Coalition is an informal, international fellowship comprised of Christian leaders and workers in the recovery arena, together with Christians in recovery and others seeking the power and love of God as a means of recovering from the ravages of alcoholism, addictions, and other life-controlling problems.

Our Two-Part Mission Statement

"To glorify God by making known the roles played by God, His Son Jesus Christ, and the Bible in the astonishing 75% and 93% success rates (overall, and in Cleveland, respectively) early A.A. claimed among ‘seemingly-hopeless,’ ‘medically-incurable,’ ‘real’ alcoholics who really tried to follow the original recovery program developed by A.A. cofounders Bill W. and Dr. Bob in Akron, Ohio, beginning in the summer of 1935."

"To glorify God by helping Christian leaders and workers in the recovery arena substantially improve their effectiveness in reaching those who still suffer by including accurate information about the original, highly-successful Akron A.A. program, its principles and techniques, and its historical setting into their recovery efforts."

12 Steps 1 God

I’m simply a person like you. I don’t have any special experience or qualifications in alcohol abuse. I’m not a counselor, therapist, or psychologist. In the tradition of AA, I desire to remain anonymous. It doesn’t matter who I am. What matters is how our stories have a “common thread” that connects us. Together, we can help each other recover from alcoholism.
