We Have a Step

We have a Step that answers any problem we have. And people who have had the spiritual experience that results from working these Steps want to share their experience. They know what they did, and they can help others by carrying this message. Indeed, we are compelled by Step 12 to “carry this message.” ~ McQ, Joe. Carry This Message (Kindle Locations 184-186).
Recovery is a huge subject,
the total of everything said each day
in meetings around the world,
between sponsors and sponsorees,
the writing members do, countless phone calls,
text messages, emails, god box slips,
Fourth Step inventories... There's no end.
But there is a single program, twelve specific Steps,
for a single Primary Purpose of carrying
the message to the compulsive overeater who still suffers.
Recovery is a huge subject but in its purest form
a very specific program.
