Looks like a plan.
I read and do bible study for many reasons.
AA, the steps, the sugestions for life... I find them in both AA and the bible.
You can continue and take what you want and need at the time from the bible study. You can go to AA meetings and take what you want or need from there as well.
For me... the bible studies gave me the same understanding and growth that the steps can and do give. I also grew in my understanding of what the bible says at the same time as well.
Don't reject the message because you may be up against a poor messanger.
Read the bible for yourself and ask God to guide your understanding. I find that when I ask, I get.
Again the above quote sounds like a good plan all the same.
