The Oxford Group’s Influence (part 1)

from Steps to the Spirit Hosted by Chuck Lutz

Send us Fan Mail Although I am still speaking about the Oxford group, I have changed the podcasts from an introduction to the Oxford group to how it actually influenced the beginnings of the 12 step program. Hence, I gave a new title to the rest of this series, which is, “The Oxford Group’s Influence”. The influence of the Oxford group reinforces my belief that this is a God-given program, or at the very least, we God inspired program. As you have, hopefully, read, the Oxford group seems to be credited with only three or four or at the most five of the steps in the 12 step program. I maintain that all of the steps in the 12 step program are influenced by the Oxford group. Below, is a diagram I have created that links many of the Oxford Groups ingredients to the 12 step program. SORRY! AM NOT ABLE TO POST GRAPHIC! I WILL TRY TO HAVE A LINK AVAILABLE BEFORE THE END OF THIS SERIES - OR EMAIL ME AND I WILL SEND IT TO YOU. Email: [email protected] In these episodes I will be speaking about all of these connections between the Oxford group and the 12 step program. It is my feeling, and I cannot emphasize that enough, that this is ultimately a God-given program and that those who contributed to it were working entirely on His behalf. I hope you enjoy the episode as well as enjoy learning about this connection.
