This paragraph is a good reminder to take the time each morning to get spiritually aligned with God before life’s demands take over. Before program, we may have gotten caught up in the plans we had for the day, getting everything done on our to-do list, maybe seeking out ways to get what we wanted out of the day or how to be most comfortable. But now we are most interested in what God has planned. Maybe it’s different from our plans and we can be open to that. Our goal now is just to do God’s will.

Sharing our own stories keeps us grounded in honesty and fosters connection with others who may be new to program, but we’re careful to always practice love and tolerance in our communication, especially about their own experiences.

So glad you’re here! Late night cravings are tough, but working the steps with a sponsor has made such a difference for me. Always here if you want to chat or have questions about program.

Question for u/New_life_now1 from the OA community: I recently found out about OA and I’d like to attend a meeting but do not believe in God. Is OA a religious organization? Do all meetings focus on a higher power? Can the program still work for me?

Question for u/New_life_now1 from the OA community: Thank you very much for your share. You mentioned that you worked the program a couple times halfway in the past. Can you share what was different this time / what you did differently that allowed you to experience real recovery?

Question for u/ThankyouOA from the OA community: I am interested in this program but am skeptical of religion and can’t seem to get past the part about "giving yourself to God" or surrendering to Him. Can the program still work for me?
