Inside this collectible volume, you will find 52 Wisdom Quotes, newly edited, along with six “quote specific” questions for each one to help you get the most from each Spiritual Quote.
This Beautiful Book of Wisdom Quotes is designed to be a valuable and enjoyable resource to help you deepen your recovery experience and can be used as a meditation book or journal -- there's plenty of space between the questions to record your thoughts right below each question!
Here's an example of a quote and questions from week twelve:
Quote for Week Thirty-seven
"A God small enough for me to understand wouldn't be large enough for me to trust".
What a stumbling block the "God" thing was for me in the beginning of my recovery. Having been raised Catholic, I was afraid of God and after a while rejected the whole idea outright. I mean, how could there be a God if children got cancer and wars in His name still ravaged the world? And now I was told that my very life and recovery was dependent on my ability to forge a relationship with God? What was I going to do?
The key for me was reframing the God concept as simply a power greater than myself. This put the mystery back in for me, and suddenly I didn't have to understand how God worked, and I didn't have to explain anything either. My proof of God was now clear enough - God clearly could do something that I alone couldn't do - relieve me of the desire to drink and use.
Today my concept and understanding of God doesn't get clearer, it gets more expansive. I've become more accepting of God's will, and time and time again find that things often work out for the best - despite what I initially thought. I've stopped trying to explain who or what God is and know that the infinite reality of the divine will always be beyond my finite understanding. I now know that a God small enough for me to understand wouldn't be large enough for me to trust.
I now know that a God small enough for me to understand wouldn't be large enough for me to trust. |

"What a gift! By chance, I came upon this website about a year ago. I subscribed to the weekly e-mail and I was SO impressed with the "way" Michael Z. says things that I wrote him to express my heartfelt thanks! Then when the book came out...well, that's the icing on the cake! I bought one for myself and one for the treatment center where I work! Thank you again! PS Since I work with people frequently who are angry, I recently quoted him, "Remember, anger is just one letter away from DANGER" !!! You gotta love this book!"

"In all of the countless books and guides written for the recovering soul, Michael has condensed and refined the monumental key points that must be addressed by anyone venturing to take THE JOURNEY. 'Wisdom of the Rooms' is a great companion to the newly recovered, the old timers, and anyone who simply needs a simple guide to spiritual peace and understanding.
Thank you, Michael Z!"

"An amazing book. For anyone who is in recovery or seeking recovery this book will aid your journey in so many ways. It covers almost any fear or feeling you may carry. We are not alone. You will discover this in your reading of these pages. It is even rewarding for those who want to understand a lost loved one. Read, embrace, hope, live, believe, pray and remember above all "one day at a time" All we have to do is one day at a time. Thanks Michael Z."

"This book is a great tool to increase spiritual fitness. Although very useful for folks recovering from addictions, this book will benefit anyone who is looking to grow spiritually. I recommend keeping this book at arms length and using it on a daily basis."

"Thank you Michael for putting this book together and making these quotes available to us all. Believe it or not, everyone does not have a computer readily available. I've been reading his weekly e-mail quotes since he started and they are awesome. Written by people in recovery just like myself. I look forward to reading them every Monday morning. Now I can have them at my finger tips where ever I am. I can ponder over simple yet thought provoking questions on the opposite page of each weekly quote. This only proves there IS a great deal of wisdom in the rooms.
I highly recommend this book. I bought several and gave them out as gifts as well."
--Sherry R |

"This book is a must-have for anyone willing to admit that they could use a little help with getting to know themselves better and understanding why we deal with things in one way or another. With its weekly quotes and reflection questions, you will find yourself relating to the personality traits and situations it addresses. While originally written for those in recovery, I found it useful just to deal with those little addictions we all have. Just a great way to start your day!"
