Mercy Street will meet this Saturday, November 3rd at 5:30pm at Lakeland Community Church in Lee’s Summit.  As this is the start of a new month we will begin discussing Step Two:

Came to believe that a power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.

The Biblical comparison from the NIV translation:

For it is God who works in you to will and to act according to his good purpose.  – Philippians 2:13

Richard Rohr says, “Alcoholics Anonymous parallels the clear teachings of Jesus: surrender alone leads to transformation; mere reason, willpower or information cannot change you at deep levels.”  Read his full post on Step Two.

All twelve steps with their Biblical comparison are posted on the Resources tab.
