AA's Pioneer Program: The Akron Connection Father Bill W.

    • Spirituality

Matt D. from All Addicts Anonymous (AAA) leads listeners in this series exploring the early history of the AA program. In this episode Dr. Bob’s influence is discussed along with an introduction to the Four Absolutes that Bob and many of the Pioneers saw as the heart of the program and continued using in conjunction with the 12 Steps. (Fr. Bill had some audio issues in the first half of the recording, and we’ve attempted to edit these out where possible.  Matt’s sound is crystal clear and his message is important so please don’t miss this one.)

Show Notes:

A classic archive video of Dr. Bob’s Last Major Address to Alcoholics Anonymous in 1948.

A Manual for Alcoholics Anonymous – early AA publication from AA in Akron.
