What will it take for us to stop living dreary lives? What will it take for us to fill the deep ache and longing we all have for that elusive "something more"? In a courageous departure from the traditional twelve step views of spirituality, Lynn takes our hungry souls on a life-changing journey to the kingdom within, laying out a path of startling new concepts to reconnect us with our own divinity.

For years, Lynn Grabhorn was a passionate student of thought and our divine relation to Self. Raised in Short Hills, New Jersey, she moved to California in 1963, the same year she joined A.A.

In her own words: "Our inner beings are crying out for us to remember who and what we really are, because the call is out-big time-for us to wake up. All it takes is a deep desire, and anyone can make this journey with ease."

Review

"Although this book assumes the reader is a 'survivor' of alcohol, food, drug or other addictions that sent them through their twelve step program of recovery, that needn't turn you away from this great resource.BEYOND THE TWELVE STEPS speaks to my own longing, shared by many I know, to hear that promised but elusive, still small inner voice -- the voice from the kingdom within that lies behind the loud chatter of the ego self. It is the voice of our Inner Self that is our true identity in the divine, and the root of our connectedness, one with the other. Grabhorn shows us how to access that inner source of energy to create the reality we want in our lives. This is a great book for those serious about their spiritual growth and ready for the next steps into mastery." -- CONVERGENCE MAGAZINE

"I am now walking with a smile on my lips. A year ago I wouldn't have thought it possible." Kent Arne, Stockholm.

"What an inspiring, wonderful book you have written. It has opened up a whole new direction for me." Mavis U. Johannesburg, S.A.

"Having just read your book for the second time, I am again overwhelmed by its power and love. You really have 'carried the message' for me." Bob G. Waterside, Scotland

"I have read lots of self-help books since coming into recovery, but none has spoken so clearly and directly to an alcoholic as yours. I now have such a sense of direction." Jacqueline K. Glosture, U.K.

"I have always felt there was something missing in my growth on the program, and now your words have brought tears to my eyes, probably becauase another human being has heard my cries." Deborah D. Ontario, Canada.

"Though I have never been to a 12-step study program, I can't begin to tell you how much your book has helped me. You have presented material that so many writers make complicated, into such an easy approach. I plan on using your book as I would the Bible." Barbara C. Upland, California -- LETTERS FROM READERS

"In a departure from the traditional approach to the 'spiritual side' of twelve step recovery, Lynn Grabhorn's book BEYOND THE TWELVE STEPS; ROADMAP TO A NEW LIFE invites the reader to move beyond structured thinking and gain contact with Who and What they truly are. She expertly brings together the concept of Higher Power in control, and that that control comes from within. BEYOND THE TWELVE STEPS is not only for those in recovery, but for anyone searching for meaning and direction in life." -- CONCEPTS MAGAZINE

"Truly, this is an important new book which stands out from the plethora of recovery literature. Acknowledging the debt she owes to Alcoholics Anonymous, the author encourages the reader to move beyond self-imposed limitations and answer the 'call to Home,' the longing for the connection with the God within." --SMALL PRESS MAGAZINE
