Back to my question is that, as New York ever bailed out a group, I've actually never seen a group come to the point where they needed that.
Ever wondered what keeps Alcoholics Anonymous (A.A.) true to its core mission? In this episode of 'Take 12 Recovery Radio', host Monty Dale Meyer, known as the Monty'man, and his co-host Chris S. dive into the writings of A.A. co-founder Bill W. Specifically, they explore Traditions Seven and Eight from 'The Language of the Heart'. This episode is a treasure trove for anyone curious about the inner workings of A.A. and its guiding principles.
Monty and Chris shed light on how self-support through personal contributions has helped A.A. maintain its independence and focus. They also discuss the often-overlooked challenges of group finances and the importance of compensating A.A. service workers. But it's not all about money; they delve into the deeper issue of understanding alcoholism itself and the distinctions between A.A. and other treatment programs.
The episode is peppered with stories of experience, strength, and hope, making it a rich resource for anyone on a recovery journey or supporting someone who is. Tune in for a heartfelt discussion that not only honors the legacy of Bill W. but also offers practical insights for today's A.A. members.
