This review is from: Awakening: Restoring Health Through the Spiritual Principles of Shalom, Jesus, and the Twelve Step Recovery Program (Paperback)

This book is for any 12-stepper who wants to bridge the gap between his/her 12-step group experience, and church experience, and understand why the gap exists. It helped me when I had to find my healing outside the church,and didn't understand why. It might also help church folks understand those who find the 12-step experience more helpful than church. Exploring how Jesus healed helps reveal what is often missing from the church today, and may help church members rediscover their healing ministry.
