![]() SESSION 16 STEP 8 Into Action pp. 76 - 84 Step 8. Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all. Like a tornado roaring his way through the lives of others. (82: 3) Step 8 written inventory Take Step 8 ION YOUR OWN: STUDY – What did the Big Book authors say?
II WITH THE GROUP: PRACTICE – What does the Big Book say to me about my practice of Step 8? We may read parts of Into Action pp. 76-84 together. Without mentioning names, talk about whom we have included on our list. For example, have I included everyone I have ever interacted with? Did I only include people I committed egregious acts against? Does my list have too many, or too few, people on it? We may share our personal writings, or choose one or more group members to speak on this Step by the Big Book. Points of Focus and Reflection (Consider 76: 3-77: 1; 78: 2-79: 0; 80: 5; 83: 2, 3) 1.) All persons we had harmed– Where had I been at fault?
3.) Willing to make amends to them all
III DAILY PRACTICE OF STEP 8 PRINCIPLES
IV TAKE STEP 8: WRITE THE LIST We take Step 8 in the third paragraph of page 76. See page 74 of this workbook for the optional Step 8 written inventory. When we have finished writing the list of people you have harmed, then according to the Big Book and under the conditions of this day, we have taken Step 8. Observe taking Step 8 in the manner that you and your group choose. pp. 85-86
