Welcome to the most in-depth and comprehensive daily Big Book Study anywhere on the Internet. You will find this group refreshingly civil and true to AA's Big Book, "Alcoholics Anonymous". This is NOT "AA Lite" - This serious Study is unlike any other daily BBS you have ever seen on the Internet. THAT ALONE ought to make most folks pass on by - and please feel free to do so. But if you are an alcoholic and seek a solution, or are already recovered and just want to keep your own studies fresh (And perhaps even help others with your experience) - you will NOT be sorry you have joined.
We were founded on Yahoo, October 11, 2006 - with two purposes in mind and that was (i) to help others bring the focus of the typical Yahoo AA type recovery group back to the Program of Alcoholics Anonymous. And (ii) provide the learning necessary for cyber group members to go back to their own face-2-face groups armed with Big Book understanding. We find this helps MAXIMIZE our usefulness. We hope it does you too.
We have been around for a number of years and have been witnessing a very stark reality. We see our success rate and long term sobriety slip from, "Rarely have we seen a person fail who has thoroughly followed our path" to
"seldom do we see a person recover from a seemingly hopeless state of mind and body."
In our real-time, f2f experience we have watched the groups we were betting our lives on downsize or become history. We were not realizing the Promises of the Program of Alcoholics Anonymous. We were confused and were not comprehending the word serenity nor were we enjoying the peace we once had.
With this thought in mind, this Group is an Open Membership Group so all who have an interest in learning about the Program of Alcoholics Anonymous are welcome.
Please join us in the Fellowship of the Spirit as we try to pass on THIS message of hope that is found only in a book titled, "ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS."
