About Course

The Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous describes how the authors recovered from alcoholism. Based exclusively on these guidelines, you will work the steps in eighteen weeks using William H. Shaberg’s A Step Work Group Guide: Big Book Format workbook.  This workbook is also available in print and digital format on Amazon. It is not necessary to purchase this separately.  If you choose to use this online format all materials from the workbook are included in this lesson plan. It is recommended that you work in a group of ten people. Directions for forming a group are included in the first lesson. It is also recommended that each group member get a journal to answer questions in, so you may share them at your group meeting. You will also need a copy of The Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous, which you can get from your affiliate group or from most book sellers.

 

This version is a completely self-administered class. It is not facilitated by a teacher. There is no zoom support. You may use this to create and manage your own group.
