God is the Key by Rick (Chicago, IL) 5 Stars
October 23, 2009
Like any self help book it is what you make of it. The critical and life changing steps within these pages are the 1st three. 1. Acceptance. Admit you have a drinking problem 2. Belief. Believe there is a Power(God) greater than your own self-centered being 3. Surrender. Turn your life and will over to God Not rocket science by any means. Upon completion of the Big Book I would strongly recommend pivoting directly to God's word in the Holy Bible. This is where living truly begins.

Have to say, before I became acquainted with this program, I had entirely different ideas about alcoholics. The thought or idea that I could ever become one was unfathomable! This book, in it's description of the real alcoholic and the mental/physical disease that we suffer still holds true today. I have not found a lie in this book yet, . . . and I continue to watch and test for them. Truly a must read for all who suffer.
