Solution Based Recovery: Being a member of the fellowship and following the twelve steps means that you are changed on the inside, not controlled from the outside.

Being a member of the fellowship and following the twelve steps means that you are changed on the inside, not controlled from the outside.  It means that your heart has been changed by the presence of a power greater than yourself.  It does not mean that you are required to go to church, required to pay membership fees, required to be good, required to do anything in order to stay a member.  It means you desire to do those things because you've been changed by a course of actions that changes the way you think.
