IMPORTANT: The next Big Book Study Group will start on Thursday 13 September 2018. Pass this message onto anyone you think may be interested in joining. Step 12: “Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to alcoholics, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.” 12 x 12 From line 14 on page 108: ‘Then, in Step Seven, we humbly asked God to remove our shortcomings such as He could or would under the conditions of the day we asked…’ until end of paragraph 1 on page 109 ‘…and who still considered his well-loved AA group the higher power, would presently love God and call Him by name.’’ Soulwork Q1. How does doing Steps 1-6 seem like a launching pad for step 7 to fly you into the willingness to go onto 8 and 9 and then to continue the work in 10, 11 and 12? Q2. What was your experience with taking your mistakes, character defects, shortcomings, to Quiet Time and praying to replace the shortcoming with an asset? Give some experiences e.g. judgmentalism and the asset of acceptance of others. Q3. a) What was your experience, were you successful? b) So many years later are you still seeing the fruits of doing steps 6 and 7, 8, really concentrating on your ownmistakes? c) Have you replaced your old thinking pattern with a new one? Q4. Give an example of baulking at making an amend. What was the impact on you? Q5.a) Was the overall process of making amends a positive or negative experience? b) Give an example of an interaction you had with someone when making amends. Q6.a) Do you do Step 10 on a daily basis? b) How does this step fit into the overall success of staying on the AA beam, living one day at a time and taking one mistake at a time rather than looking at the whole thing? Q7. Has your Higher Power restored you to sanity? Do you have peace of mind? Q8. Is there anything about step 11 that still sticks in your throat? If so, do you take it to God? Ends
