"Spiritual Aspects of Alcoholism" by Father Joseph C. Martin
The deepest damage of the disease is to the "inner person." It is far more devastating than the damage to the body in most cases. The Big Book calls alcoholism a "soul-sickness". Through denial and other behavior, the alcoholic lives against his or her conscience. Step Four calls for a moral inventory. The answer then is spiritual. AA is a set of spiritual principles. The result of living these principles should be serenity, which is nothing more than "PEACE OF CONSCIENCE."
