Abstract
ABSTRACT This article looks at the relationship between Maslow's concept of self-actualization and Fowler's stages of faith of recovering alcoholic adult children of alcoholics. There were 17 respondents: 10 self-actualized (S-A) and 7 not self-actualized (NS-A). The S-A respondents were in the higher faith stages indicating a transformative conversion process. Data on current life functioning demonstrated correlation between S-A, faith stage, and current behaviors. Discussion addresses two key and interconnected concepts-an innate dynamic force to search for God and the surrender of self as a grieving process-and their implications for ministry.
