Bill: “George, have you ever cried out, ‘Why can’t I do this better?'”
George: ‘On the golf course yesterday.’

The guys expand on these deep thoughts as they dive into Step 11:

“Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood God, praying only for knowledge of God’s will for us and the power to carry that out.”

Heather Kopp makes her return appearance to the program, sharing her own story of recovery after hiding her addiction for 12 years. Heather worked for a Christian business by day and was blacking out at night, hiding her bottles in her boot, and living a double life.

She shares about the conflict and resolution that happened within her soul as she wrestled with being a Christian and alcoholic, and she shares how you can start living differently, just like she did.

Heather Kopp is the author of Sober Mercies: How Love Caught Up with a Christian Drunk.

Heather is also the author of more than two-dozen non-fiction titles. She began writing in her early twenties with magazine articles and a column for a Christian woman’s magazine. After writing several books of her own, she moved on to write numerous books with her husband, and to edit or collaborate with other authors.

These days, Heather is returning to publishing after a personal hiatus during which time she focused on her recovery from alcoholism and on her spiritual connection to God and others. Today, Heather is especially interested in raising awareness in the Christian community about topics related to addiction and recovery.

Heather loves novels, yoga, recovery meetings, biking or hiking, visiting her grown kids in Oregon, and having spiritually stimulating discussions with people from all walks of life and faith. She and her husband have five grown children and make their home in Colorado Springs, CO.
