This book boldly asserts that New Testament prophetic visions portray a dynamic heaven-borne program of collective human revitalization in the new future. It is just the opposite of the doom and gloom predictions of many modern prognosticators. The author attempts to combine the authentic openness and self-revealing vulnerability of the AA community with the stupendous gospel claims of God's personal and global gift of eternal life with him. This combination of powerful, practical deliverance from addition, and the promise of God's unconditional grace-love, echoes in both of these contemporary historic phenomena--the ancient character of the Gospel's successful joining of God with us in our suffering world. From the first step to the last, the AA program and the Christian Gospel have produced bona fide evidence that anyone who seeks God and his right character will find it, and with it a new mind, a new God, and a new lasting life hope, that is, an eternal "spiritual awakening."
