I must at all times maintain my daily reprieve from my addiction. I must put God first every morning; when I am tempted by desire to do something else, like use a computer or my smartipants phone (whatever the rationalization) I must say “No!” and claim victory over temptation. Even if I am not up to reading, there is alway the Rosary, and perhaps Lectio Divina.

Are you a creative Catholic? "The Catholicpunk Manifesto" is my new book exhorting Catholics to apply their faith to change the culture for the better!

Know someone, perhaps yourself, who might like Catholic devotionals for alcoholics? Please take a look at my books! "The Stations of the Cross for Alcoholics" and "The Recovery Rosary: Reflections for Alcoholics and Addicts" (Thank you!!)
