The Steps We Took
A Teacher of the Twelve Steps Shares His Experience, Strength, and Hope With All Those Recovering From Addictions, All Who Want To Recover, and All Who Love Them
Author: Joe McQ
đź’« About the Book
The Steps We Took is a heartfelt and accessible guide through the Twelve Steps of recovery, written by one of the most respected teachers in the recovery community, Joe McQ.
Based on decades of lived experience, service, and study, this book offers a clear, down-to-earth exploration of each of the Twelve Steps — what they mean, how to apply them, and why they work. Whether you are new to recovery, have years of sobriety, or love someone who struggles with addiction, Joe’s voice brings warmth, humility, and wisdom to a process that has changed millions of lives.
In the spirit of honesty and simplicity, Joe helps readers understand how the Steps are not merely tools for overcoming addiction but a spiritual framework for living — one that can bring peace, purpose, and healing to anyone seeking freedom from destructive patterns.

- Healing for Families and Loved Ones: Joe’s teachings help readers understand how to support — and love — those on the recovery path.
