"Under Your Own Power represents a new, unique approach to the profound question of spirituality in recovery. Ronald Rogers and Chandler Scott McMillin have worked in the field of addictions for more than twenty years and during that span have assisted thousands of nonbelievers in their journey out of the morass of alcohol and drug addiction. They know from experience that recovery without belief in God is not only possible, but common." "This timely and much-needed addition to the recovery literature rewrites the Twelve Steps for nonbelievers and offers a number of practical suggestions within the Twelve Step approach as well as through alternative programs such as Secular Sobriety and Rational Recovery. The book provides directions for getting and staying sober, avoiding relapse, recognizing addiction, understanding and dealing with Twelve Step programs, and finding faith in a Higher Power outside of conventional religion and the traditional "deity" mode. With this ground-breaking book, Rogers and McMillin offer a lifeline for addicted nonbelievers, and for those who love them."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
