A guest essay by Mike Glenn compares a friend's devotion to AA with the commitment of Christians, including the author, to following Jesus. Agreeing with the friend that AA does church better than the church, it argues that churches should be open and non-judgmental and should have mature members helping newcomers. It calls for frequent attendance, daily self-examination against the Sermon on the Mount, mentoring, and care for those who struggle. It traces Christian half-heartedness to the belief that discipleship is a matter of willpower rather than a recognition of one's powerlessness and need for help.
