Addictions and struggles with the passions are rampant in our
culture. Fr. Meletios Webber, an Orthodox priest with a doctorate
in counseling, helps us to understand addiction and explores ways
to overcome it. He clearly and skillfully explains the Twelve Steps
of the Fellowship of Alcoholics Anonymous. In correlating the
Twelve Steps with basic Orthodox theology, Fr. Mel identifies the
implication of the Twelve Steps for Orthodox, and for all
Christians. Using examples from the life of the Orthodox Church, he
shows how the Steps can be a valuable resource for our own
spiritual journey. With a foreword by Bishop Kallistos Ware
Reviews: "Fr. Meletios Webber's Steps of Transformation presents
the vision and practice of Twelve-Step programs for dealing with
addictions, particularly alcoholism. He relates the Steps to
Orthodox Christian spirituality with clarity, conviction, and
appealing personal engagement. Here is a book which addicts and
their friends are sure to treasure. It is true, deep, pure, rich,
and highly rewarding.: -Fr. Thomas Hopko, Dean Emeritus, St.
Vladimir's Seminary; speaker, author "At those moments when I have
fallen to lowest of depths, then my cry has most convincingly
attracted the grace of God. This book is about the spirituality of
imperfection. Steps of Transformation is written with clarity and
simplicity by a man who recognizes that 'God hears the voice of our
prayer, only out of the depths of our cry.' " -Fr. John
Chryssavgis, Professor of Theology, Holy Cross; author and speaker
"Steps of Transformation was very simple, easy to read, and right
on target about both the problem of, and the solution to, the
disease of alcoholism. I suggest that anyone can benefit from
reading this book, and I encourage all Orthodox Christians to take
a look at it." -Floyd Frantz, CAC, St. Dimitrie Addictions
Treatment Program, Romania
