How Listen to God
From 1996 to 2000, the author
traveled throughout the United States with James Houck, a 94-year-old member of
the Oxford Group and the Twelve-Step community.
With a sobriety date of December 12, 1934, James was the last living
link to the spiritual roots of the Twelve-Step movement.
During these four years,
James and Wally took thousands of people through the Four Steps of Surrender,
Sharing, Restitution and Guidance in order to free them from the bondage of
addiction by establishing and maintaining a “conscience contact” with the “One
who has all power.”
Chapters Five
through Eleven of this book describe, in detail, how Bill W., Dr. Bob, James H.
and the “first one hundred” took these Steps and recovered prior to the
publication of the “Big Book.”
James was a remarkable person
and a national treasure.
In addition to
changing the lives of countless alcoholics, addicts and those suffering from
obsessive/compulsive disorders, James changed the lives of children within the
Baltimore school system and longshoremen on the Baltimore docks.
