Step 8 - Relationship Reflection

“Do to others as you would have them do to you.”

Luke 6:31

Step Eight is about coming to an accurate view of what actually went wrong in our relationships. To identify those persons we have harmed and become willing to make amends to them all, we need to look at our past actions and the root causes of why we behaved the way we did. With God’s help, we will be able to sort out some of the contributing factors of what went wrong and break the cycle of injuring others.
