When we learn to recognize our addiction, accept our brokenness, and surrender to God, we can bring healing to ourselves and our world. In Breathing Under Water, Richard Rohr demonstrates how the gospel principles of the Twelve Steps can liberate anyone from addiction, from obvious dependencies on alcohol or drugs to the more common but less visible addiction that we all have to sin. Richard Rohr, one of the greatest discoveries of the Twelve Step program, America's most significant and authentic contribution to the history of spirituality. Rohr argues that the Twelve Steps are compatible with Christian teaching and can save anyone who is drowning in addiction, even if they are not aware of it. To survive the tidal wave of compulsive behavior and addiction, Christians must learn to breathe underwater and discover God's love and compassion. In this exploration of Twelve Step Spirituality, Rohr identifies the core Christian principles in the Twelve Steps, connecting them to the Gospels. This is a must-read for anyone who recognizes the need to go inward on their soul journey to question their relationship with God, themselves, and others. The Cord is a perfect writer on the subject of the Twelve Steps. His easy-to-read book is essentially a commentary on each of the steps, with twelve chapters and a postscript that concisely tackles the big religious questions of human suffering, with which addicts and their families are intimately acquainted. Jesus, Rohr answers, is no stranger to suffering. . . . This is a good book for those in recovery from addiction and those who love them.
