Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview: #1 I was sheepish about asking anyone to be my sponsor, but there was this one guy who took me under his wing. I had been sober for only three months when I was invited to give a speech at a meeting. I was terrified of losing control in public. #2 I told the story of me, explaining how I’d always felt like a troubled guest on the dark earth. I listed the long list of reasons for my tattered selfworth, including my father’s death from alcoholism. #3 When I was a young boy, I was lost at sea with my family. When I began working on my issues in my twenties, the green shoots of a new story began to emerge. It took years of hard work and prayer to craft a new narrative, but today when I look in the mirror, I see a sober husband and father. #4 The Enneagram is a system that helps people understand themselves better. It describes nine different types, and the underlying premise of each type’s selfdefining stories is in direct opposition to the gracefilled Larger Story God wants us to enter into and enjoy.
