I do believe that you can be kept sober just by going to AA, because that is willingness, and that's what it keeps saying that we're after here.
Ever wondered how traditions shape the journey of sobriety? In this episode of 'That's NOT in the book!', Agent X and William tackle the intricate web of traditions and the singleness of purpose in Alcoholics Anonymous. They dive into the Big Book's impact on AA and discuss the crucial role of archives in preserving the rich history of the organization. William brings his frontline experiences to the table, shedding light on the importance of service at upper levels.
Yet, it's not all smooth sailing—they also address the challenges of conformity and the necessity for AA to evolve with changing times. The conversation touches on the global history of AA, the involvement of non-alcoholics, and even the contentious debate around the disease model of alcoholism. This episode is a treasure trove of insights for both AA members and anyone curious about addiction and recovery.
Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion that might just change how you view tradition in AA.
