The traditions and concepts keep us from committing genocide. And even if I think you're not doing it the way you should, I will support your right to do your program your way, because I believe in unity and I believe that in OA there is no one absolute right way to do it.
Ever wondered what keeps a group like Overeaters Anonymous (OA) grounded and united? In this episode of OA RISE, Margie G. delves into the core principles that guide OA: its traditions and concepts. These aren't just rules; they're the backbone that holds the community together, preserving its spiritual essence. Margie shares her thoughts on how these principles ensure that OA remains a supportive and structured environment for everyone involved.
She doesn't shy away from discussing the challenges either, especially how the shift to online meetings has affected these traditions. But it's not all about the hurdles. Margie also highlights the importance of service and the decision-making processes within OA, including the roles of the board of trustees and the appeal process. Her message is clear: unity and support are crucial for anyone navigating their own path within OA.
Whether you're a long-time member or new to the group, Margie's insights offer a deeper understanding of what makes OA tick.
