Gresham’s Law in AA: The Strength of Your Program Matters

Over the years, three ways have evolved for working the AA Program: Strong, Medium, and Weak. Like a cup of coffee or tea the strength makes all the difference and that difference, for some of us, could include whether we live or die!
Ever wondered why some people seem to thrive in AA while others struggle? In this episode, Father Bill W. and Matt D. dive into the classic article 'Gresham’s Law and Alcoholics Anonymous' to explore the three distinct ways people work the AA program: Strong, Medium, and Weak. Think of it like your morning coffee—how strong you make it can change everything. For some, this difference is a matter of life and death.
The duo discusses the often-overlooked 11th Step practice of Two Way Prayer and the Ten Points, which offer spiritual inspiration and guidance. These Ten Points were the original commitments of the first hundred AA members and are seen as the backbone of effective recovery. Father Bill breaks down how a strong commitment to these principles can propel you into a new dimension of existence, while a weaker approach may leave you floundering.
If you're seeking to deepen your understanding of AA's spiritual roots and how they can guide you toward lasting sobriety, this episode is a must-listen.
