Interested in a Big Book study? - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

**nandm** · 02-09-2008, 08:58 PM

If you are interested in:
learning more about the Big Book
Gaining a clearer understanding of what each passage means
Understanding how to apply the Big Book to our lives
Develop a better basic knowledge of the Big Book

Why not check out our Big Book study?

Each chapter has been broken down.
In this study you will find the page number, sentence number, and quote from the Big Book as well as an explanation of what that passage is referring to or how it applies to us.
You will also find historical notes, definitions, and summaries of the key individuals who helped put AA together.

I do hope you will take a moment or two check this out. And if you do I hope you find it as useful in your recovery as I have.

Here is a link to the area in our forum where the Big Book study is:

Thanks.

I downloaded the Big Book study guide from the primary purpose group in Dallas on Wednesday (my 1st day of sobriety). I got a lot from it and am doing ok so far. Today is my 5th sober day!

I'll check out the study guide here, too.

Cheers
Diggler.

nandm,

You and others speak of this big book. Do they make smaller versions? I only have limited space in my library.

Signal,
the Big Book study I am referring to is right here in our forums. So you don't have to download it at all. Just start a chapter and start studying.

By the way thank you for sharing your ESH in our 12 step study.

Believe it or not, I do at least try to have a sense of humor.

Big Book and 12&12 book studies are important, and can definitely assist you in a spiritual experience or two.

:rof OK, Tom, I am a little slow sometimes. Thanks for the humor, maybe one day I will be quicker at getting it....:rof

I have to be careful when I display my sense of humor on here, I tend to have a touch of the dark kind of humor.
