fantastic

Father Martin does his best to make the 12 steps something that's easy to understand and to relate to. So often people who suffer from alcoholism just can't bring themselves to acknowledge that fact. And come to the conclusion or come to the understanding that they need help to get better. Father Martin goes out of his way as somebody who is an alcoholic but is recovering two. word everything in a way. that even the layman can understand and realize. That there is hope Alcohol bottom line is something that will destroy us It can destroy your mind and your body. For the brief high that it gives you. It destroys relationships and family dignity. It destroys everything, And you have to get to the point where you have to decide. Is the alcohol worth my existence And I think Father Martin definitely helps you understand that journey a little bit better.
