Beschreibung

Sober Covenants by Andy C - A Lawyer's Guide to the Promises of Sobriety Previously published as Closing Arguments for Twelve-Stepping Lawyers, Sober Covenants is a unique recovery resource written specifically for attorneys and other professionals working the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous. As a lawyer, you understand the binding nature of a contract-a promise to uphold terms and move forward with integrity. But what about the covenant of sobriety you've made with yourself? In this thoughtful and original book, Andy C applies a legal framework to the promises of Alcoholics Anonymous, breaking them down clause by clause. Each essay serves as a closing argument for why living by the 12-Step program leads to freedom, balance, and lasting sobriety. With clarity, wit, and hard-earned experience, Andy C helps readers see recovery not as a burden, but as the most meaningful agreement of their lives. Endorsements from readers:"Sober Covenants was a lifeline. It spoke the language of a lawyer and gave me the hope and guidance I desperately needed. Every lawyer in recovery should read this book." - Chris M"The road to happy destiny awaits within these pages, and it's always a pleasure to trudge along with Andy C." - Ken S Whether you're a practicing lawyer, a law student, or simply someone who appreciates a structured approach to AA recovery literature, Sober Covenants will help you honor your commitment to sobriety-one day at a time.

Autor

Andy C. has captured large elements of his sobriety with this book. Many of the lessons portrayed in the stories are from his experiences and observations as a successful lawyer, social leader and parent.

He was born in small town Ontario, Canada. He sobered up in his third year of law school, November 3, 1977. He graduated from Lakehead University with a Commerce and Finance Degree and then completed a Law Degree at the University of Toronto. He moved to Calgary. He married his wife Doreen and they have two children.

For Andy, not drinking was a first spiritual awakening. He's been blessed with subsequent spiritual awakenings as the result of the practice of the program of Alcoholics Anonymous and good sponsorship.

Andy is active in service work in AA, and was been instrumental in the foundation and ongoing growth of Simon House in Calgary. He was also a leader in the Lawyers' Assist Program of Alberta, assisting lawyers in crisis often with booze and alcohol. Andy is involved in prodigious 12-step work.
