In his work, he explores themes such as unmanageability and faith, the violence within ourselves and how it manifests in the world, intimacy and emotional sobriety, and forgiveness as a path toward bringing loving-kindness into the world through the 12 Steps.
Throughout the retreat, Ed weaves his personal experience in recovery through the steps of AA, while drawing on the teachings of Richard Rohr, Joan Chittister, Thomas Keating, and Bill Wilson.
