Understanding Tradition One: Unity in Alcoholics Anonymous
“The groups must continue to exist for people to come, so that the message can be carried to them without the sober members of Alcoholics Anonymous who have had a spiritual awakening as a result of the steps without them being findable, you know, being able to be located somewhere consistently.”
