New Biographical Novel about Bill W Wilson

Anti AA Crusader
Ken Ragge Now Offers his book More Revealed
online for free or Free PDF Download
also read online via web is
Charles Buffe's Book AA Cult or Cure
and one chapter of Rebecca Farnsway's Book

Though I do not agree with Ken's slant
I find his More Revealed book very well researched. It is
packed with footnoted information. Same for Buffe's Book
I highly recommend reading Cult or Cure... It is a classic
very informative well documented and FAIRLY unbiased....
In places the Buffee Book Does not paint a pretty picture of AA
however factually his book covers all the bases.....Fascinating!!!

Understanding and Counseling the Alcoholic by Howard J. Clinebell, Jr.
(ENTIRE BOOK) This book is written for the person, professional or lay, who wishes to apply religious resources more effectively to the problem of alcoholism. It deals with what to teach concerning alcoholism and how to handle the alcoholic who comes seeking counsel.

A Guide to Understanding the Bible by Harry Emerson Fosdick (ENTIRE BOOK) A clear and helpful explanation of the development of key ideas within the Old and New Testament including the idea of God, man, right and wrong, suffering, paryer and immortality

Emerson Fosdick
(ENTIRE BOOK) The fictional character of Ted Brown represents a young man who comDear Mr. Brown: Letters to a Person Perplexed about Religion by Harryes from a religious background, who is seriously trying to work out an intelligent philosophy of life, is sensitive to spiritual values, and who seeks a vocation where he can make the most of his best for the sake of others. This is not an attempt to give an answer those totally apart from a religious background -- beatnik contemporaries for example, that would consider Ted Brown a square.

Twelve Tests of Character by Harry Emerson Fosdick

(ENTIRE BOOK) Some fundamental tests of character which our new generation is tempted to forget. With many schemes for the world’s salvation, everything rests back on integrity and driving power in personal character.

The Sermon on the Mount by Roger Shinn
(ENTIRE BOOK) The author shows why the Sermon on the Mount has proved to be one of the most influential parts of the entire New Testament. Excellent book for those without a strong biblical and theological background.

The Sermon on the Mount by Joachim Jeremias

(ENTIRE BOOK) Does the Sermon on the Mount lay down rigid rules that Christians must follow, or is it only a standard to reveal human sin? Did Jesus mean it should be taken literally? Dr. Jeremian explains simply and clearly how the sermon came to be, and its contemporary relevance.

More about Leo Black

Cleaning House Dec. 15
By contributing editor Leo Back "Unless the Lord builds the house, its builders labor in vain ...” King Solomon, son of the great King David, wrote these words. How well he knew them to be true as he tore down all that God had built up in Israel, following after the gods of his many wives. He knew first hand that if God wasn’t in the building process, the workers were simply wasting their time.

Step #9 -- That You May be Healed Nov. 15
By contributing editor Leo Back
We have two areas to address before we move on to Step 9. We should make amends to God, and ourselves. This is a perfect moment to simply lay our relationships -- past, present, and future -- down on the altar and ask God to heal, restore, and forgive us for our part in them. Not only that, but to consecrate our relationships to Him, that from this time on, God will be glorified in them.

Step #8 -- Be Reconciled Oct.16
By contributing editor Leo Back
As we have looked at 1 - 7 of the steps toward wholeness, our main focus has been vertical relationship -- God toward us, and us relating back to God. The main focus of steps 8 and 9 changes to horizontal relationships -- us relating to others, and others to us. In fact, now it's time to examine the harm we may have caused others through our life-controlling problems.
