Summary: Wake up, Enablers!
Review: If you ready to make a difference in your family AND help the one who is chemically dependent, read this book. Whether you are the one who is chemically dependent or a family member who has participated in this life-style with the addict, this book tells you exactly what it is going to take to get the addict and the family back to functioning as normal as possible. The author includes Christianity as a helping tool but understands that the church is not exclusive to this healing process. Sometimes your pastor and church family doesn't understand enough about the addiction disease to help families and that's okay too as long as you seek professional help AND look to your Christian support. If you want honesty and are committed to becoming a healthy person/family again, this is the book that can make the difference.

Review: This books is very practical. It explains the origin of substance abuse in a person's life and its effects--which are not only on the individual but also their family. This has helped me immensely with my chemically dependent sister.
