Praise

“Spirituality is implementing one’s spirit and being the finest human being one can be. It is that simple. The twelve-step program requires the surrender of one’s will and accepting the will of G-d. It requires searching out one’s character defects and
correcting them. It requires making amends to those one may have offended. It requires helping others. It requires rigorous honesty. It thus provides a method whereby a person can become truly spiritual.”
—Rabbi Dr. Abraham J. Twerski
