ONE DAY AT A TIME:
A Summer Sermon Series on Scripture and the Twelve Steps

DISCOVER, LIBERATE, TRANSFORM!

The prayer that Jesus taught us to pray . . . “on earth as it is in heaven” . . . is a reminder to us that we are meant to live in God’s love, peace and power right here, right now, especially in difficult days.

The question is “HOW?” Day by day, one day at a time. For the past century, millions of people around the world have been transformed through living The Twelve Steps. Grounded in Biblical ideals and principles, living The Twelve Steps has been salvific, not only for folks struggling with addiction, but also for people overwhelmed by emotional struggles, by life.

In these troubled times, people around us need support and encouragement now more than ever, but we cannot do that unless we put our own oxygen masks on first. That means surrendering to our Higher Power, relying on each other for support and encouragement, and practicing our faith.

There are many different names for living a pattern of life ordered by God’s love and God’s common-sense guidance: a “rule of life,” “spiritual disciplines,” “the Way,” The Twelve Steps, and more. Essentially, they all boil down to the same thing: a Way of following Jesus that makes life meaningful and connects us more deeply with God and our neighbors.

My 20s were years of exploration, reflection and healing. Part of my healing occurred in an Al Anon group in which I experienced much liberation through working The Twelve Steps.

If you’re afraid a sermon series on The Twelve Steps will be a downer, fear not! We’re in for a summer of discovery and and liberation through practical steps that can transform our lives so that we can change the world.

I look forward to journeying with you this Summer, step by step.

Blessings,

Janet+
