WHAT REVIEWERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THIS BOOK “ Joe’s teachings have influenced me both personally and professionally. Let this compilation of his reflections do for you what Joe has done for me. Read and reflect and then pass it on to someone else who might also benefit from the wisdom of a man who certainly is no ”Ordinary Joe.” Hutch Schilling, CEO / Owner, The Nexen Group “Joe Eastman’s solid and practical view of “everyman’s” life provides a clear and calming roadmap that encourages us to open our eyes and hearts to the positive realities surrounding our constant growth.” Patrick Peyton, Chairman / CEO Despatch Industries “This “Ordinary Joe” has a unique and insightful view of our journey through Life.

This is a book of reflections by A.A. members for A.A. members. It was first published in 1990 to fulfill a long-felt need within the Fellowship for a collection of reflections that moves through the calendar year--one day at a time. Each page contains a reflection on a quotation from A.A. Conference-approved literature, such as Alcoholics Anonymous, Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, As Bill Sees It and other books. These reflections were submitted by members of the A.A. Fellowship who were not professional writers, nor did they speak for A.A. but only for themselves, from their own experiences in sobriety. Thus the book offers sharing, day by day, from a broad cross section of members, which focuses on the Three Legacies of Alcoholics Anonymous: Recovery, Unity and Service. Daily Reflections has proved to be a popular book that aids individuals in their practice of daily meditation and provides inspiration to group discussions even as it presents an introduction for some to A.A. literature as a whole.

Based on the spiritual foundations of Twelve Step programs, these daily readings—part of Hazelden’s meditation series—offer inspiration, affirmation, and hope to those of us in recovery from addiction. Drawing upon insightful phrases often overheard in the rooms of recovery, the daily reflections and prayers in this collection are intended to offer comfort and guiding reminders to those recovering from alcoholism, drug addiction, substance use disorders, process addictions, or other compulsive behaviors. Recovery is a process that happens a day at a time, and this daily reader will support your journey.

It's OK to not be a "radical" Christian. Our life is not about what we do for God. It's about what he does for us. You've heard the message. "If you really loved God, you would be totally committed-do something big, sell your belongings, maybe become a missionary." Matt Redmond has preached it himself. But here he simply asks: What about the rest of us? Through stories of pastors, plumbers, dental hygienists, and stay-at-home moms, Matt finds grace and mercy in chicken fingers, classic films, and smiles from strangers. Ultimately, he convicts us of what he has learned himself... There is a God of the mundane, and our life is not about what we do for him. It's about what he does for us.
