About Steps & Scripture

Steps & Scripture is a Christian 12-step recovery app for iPhone and Android. It pairs you with an AI sponsor — Jimmy for men, Sarah for women, following the program tradition that men sponsor men and women sponsor women.

What it does

Your sponsor takes you through the Twelve Steps in order. Recovery direction comes from the program's basic text first, then from Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, and Scripture confirms and deepens it and points you to God. When your sponsor quotes a book, it gives the page so you can read it in your own copy.

Most of the app isn't AI at all: a sober-day counter, chips, a daily plan, reminders, step worksheets, a meetings log, a call list, a prayer list and a crisis screen that works offline.

What it isn't

It isn't a meeting, a human sponsor, a church, counseling or medical care, and it never pretends to be. Jimmy and Sarah are AI and will always say so. They keep pushing you toward real people, because that's what keeps people sober.
