The Exact Nature of Our Wrongs: (Re)learning the Practice of Confession and Reconciliation from Alcoholics Anonymous

While much of the contemporary church struggles to offer people a spirituality for the real world, Alcoholics Anonymous and the 12 step program provides its members a spirituality rooted in the concrete experiences and struggles of real, everday life. The 12 steps have much to (re)teach Christians about practicing their faith. In this session, we will explore how the 12 steps can help Christians reclaim the practice of confession in ways that are healthy and spiritually restorative for all involved.
