John Ortberg Teaches STEP 6: Become Entirely Ready

Almost ready isn't ready. Join Dr. John Ortberg in the STEPS Master Class as he unpacks the 12 Steps. "We were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character." This is Step 6. Don't miss Steps, John's newest book, and its companion guide, Steps Workbook, dropping October 13. More at www.stepsguide.com. About STEPS Steps: A Guide to Transforming Your Life When Willpower Isn't Enough is John Ortberg's guide to the twelve steps as a framework for spiritual transformation, not just addiction recovery. As John puts it, "Alcoholics Anonymous got the Twelve Steps from the church. Now the church needs them back." Each step builds on the last, building toward a transformed life that becomes a source of hope for others. The STEPS Master Class walks through all twelve, one at a time, with reflection questions and practical exercises for anyone willing to be honest about what they can't control on their own. There's a real difference between wanting to change and being entirely ready to let God do the changing. In Step Six, John explores what closes that gap: moving from almost ready to actually ready, replacing an old pattern with one small constructive habit, and remembering that your identity was never up for negotiation, you are already the Beloved. You'll learn to spot the ways you've been holding onto your own solutions, why readiness is something you can practice rather than just wait for, and how receiving God's love for you changes what you're willing to let go of.
