13 The 12 Steps and Centering Prayer - Contemplative Dimension of the Twelve Steps, Thomas Keating

Fr. Thomas returns to quotes from Bill W that describe his struggles with the human condition and daily life. In finding references from Bill W’s writing, Fr. Thomas notes that while Centering Prayer and the 12 Steps come from different places, they seem to reach the same conclusion: the way to true happiness, freedom, and love is a genuine, healthy dependence on God.

    Centering prayer also makes one more intuitive to what's happening within a group, the dependency-control-approval dynamics. ❤
