Are you seeking a life of sobriety, balance, and inner peace? Sober Covenants is the essential guide you’ve been waiting for. This book offers a fresh perspective on living with poise and equanimity, providing practical insights you can implement in your life today.
Originally published as Closing Arguments for Twelve Stepping Lawyers, this new and expanded edition, Sober Covenants, has been re-imagined for a broader audience. While the first edition was well-regarded, feedback suggested its title and content felt too narrowly focused. We listened. We’ve retained the core wisdom while making it more accessible and relevant to every man on a journey toward sobriety.
Designed as a “dipping book,” each section is a concise, two-minute read, perfect for a quick moment of reflection. But don’t let the bite-sized format fool you—the essays are strategically ordered to build upon one another, providing a structured and thoughtful path toward a sober life.
Sober Covenants is more than a book; it’s a companion for your journey. It’s time to build a foundation for a life of quiet confidence and lasting peace.
Perfect — here’s the updated FAQ list reflecting that the audiobook edition is already available:
