Spiritual Awakenings is a collection of stories by AA members about the journeys of the spirit they have taken before and after sobriety, their struggles with faith, how they apply spiritual values in their daily lives, their return to the abandoned faith of their youth, their discovery of an entirely new Higher Power, their integration of personal philosophies with the principles of the Steps and Traditions.
With warmth, passion, and humor AA members describe the diverse ways in which they have found the “sunlight of the spirit.” From the pages of the Grapevine, the International journal of Alcoholics Anonymous.
