An NA sponsor encourages...
An NA sponsor encourages us to read the the literature of Narcotics Anonymous and to engage in NA activities and service work.
As important as meetings are, Narcotics Anonymous is more than just meetings. Working the program also means using the Twelve Steps, reading the Basic Text and the literature, changing our attitudes and behavior, doing service work, and carrying the message of recovery to other addicts inside and outside the Fellowship. A sponsor can encourage us to do all these things and remind us to use the various tools of our recovery program. A sponsor must always remember that we can only keep what we have by giving it away. Goodwill is best exemplified in service and proper service is "Doing the right thing for the right reason." When this supports and motivates both the individual and the Fellowship, we are fully whole and wholly free."
