As A Recovered Alcoholic, I Have A God-Given ...

As a recovered alcoholic, I have a God-given opportunity to share with other alcoholics so that they also may recover. But the very first question is, “Do you want to get better?” If the answer is “no” or “I don’t have a problem” then the response is, “Sorry to bother you.” Pursuing the issue will only harden their resolve that they are right. It becomes a contest of wills where no one wins and both parties lose. Don’t offer a pearl of great price to someone who doesn’t really want it. Use discernment.
