art defects of character? Welcome to episode 274 of the Recovery Show.

This episode is for you.

We are friends and family members of alcoholics and addicts who have found a path to serenity

and happiness.

We will ever have lived with a seemingly helpless problem of addiction,

understand as perhaps a few others can. So much depends on our own attitudes and we believe that

changed attitudes can aid recovery.

Before we begin, we would like to state that though we at the Recovery Show may be

in a 12-step program, we represent ourselves rather than the program.

During this show we will share our own experiences. The opinions expressed here are the you will find something in our sharing that speaks to your life.

of character.

What are the things that are within me that stand between me and my use to God and my fellow man. Those are the things that I need to get rid of.

And so we move on into step six.

We're entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.

Like I said, I got to this point and I sat down and rested.
