Join Joe McDonald as he dives deeper into Steps 8 and 9 of Alcoholics Anonymous, discussing how to approach making amends when fear or postponement might be holding us back. The Big Book acknowledges that there may be wrongs we can never fully right, but that doesn’t mean we avoid them. It’s important to recognize that willingness is what matters most—if we would make it right, we’ve taken a significant step in the process of healing.
In Alcoholics Anonymous, there may be situations where direct amends aren’t possible due to circumstances like distance or the inability to contact the person. Joe McDonald explains that in such cases, writing an honest letter can be a solution. However, it’s crucial to ensure that our reasons for postponement are valid and not based on fear or avoidance. The Big Book encourages us to move forward in our recovery and not delay unnecessarily when making amends.
