Abstract
ABSTRACT This article describes the process of spiritual experience in recovery of 57 members of Alcoholics Anonymous from groups located in Southern New Jersey.

The process of spiritual experiences described by the participants was slow, 72%, sudden, 22%, and both slow and sudden, 6%. This spiritual experience phenomenon was not found to be related to religious denomination, regular church attendance, or daily prayer. Chi-square analyses revealed significant associations between claiming to have had a spiritual experience along with completion of Steps 4, 5, 8 and 9.
