Found church to be dangerous and it wasn't until I learned the spirituality that enlighten and opened my heart and eyes as to how big God really ones.

I don't leaving people of different religions being left outside of the circle. Selective hearing and a closed mind, blocks you from God's blessing available to you.

I was raised in the church, I went to church even as my addiction grew. Just the church alone couldn't keep me sober. I taught Sunday School, was saved and baptized at 14, dedicated my life to God at 18, and it didn't stop me from becoming an alcoholic.

In today, my religious beliefs enhances my spiritual life and my spiritual believes, drew me closer to my God and a deeper understanding of His Will for my life.

Honestly, if I had to make a choice, it would be AA. It saved my life. When I went back to church, I went to Associated Gospel. I loved the music, and what the minister said, I could apply it to what I learned in AA and Al-Anon.
