Описание книги

This collection of readings moves through the calendar year one day – and one page – at a time. For every day, a favorite quotation from the literature of Alcoholics Anonymous is followed by an A.A. member’s personal reflection, making for daily reading that is at once inspired and inspiring. <br>
While focusing broadly on the Three Legacies of Recovery, Unity and Service, this volume offers experience, strength and hope on specific topics such as willingness, faith, making amends – themes that recovering alcoholics must address each day – and reminds us that we are never really alone in Alcoholics Anonymous. <br>
Whether using the day’s reading as a source for their morning meditation, discussing it with a sponsor or sharing it with their home group, many in Alcoholics Anonymous consider <i>Daily Reflections</i>to be a critical tool in their “spiritual toolkit.” <br>
Features a topical index to help guide discussion. <br>
<i>Daily Reflections</i> has been approved by the General Service Conference.

Отрывок из книги

Alcoholics Anonymous World Services, Inc., New York, N.Y.

At the top of each dated page is a quotation from such sources as Bill W. in Alcoholics Anonymous, Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, A.A. Comes of Age, As Bill Sees It, and The Best of Bill; Dr. Bob from Dr. Bob and the Good Oldtimers; and other A.A. Conference-approved literature.

.....

Following each quote is a personal reflection, by an individual A.A. member, on the quotation. A request to the entire A.A. Fellowship produced over 1,300 submissions. The A.A. members selected for inclusion are not professional writers, and speak, of course, not for the Fellowship but for themselves—one A.A. member writing to other A.A. members.

As a result of these contributions, the entire book focuses on our Three Legacies of Recovery, Unity and Service, and is in keeping with our Preamble which states that “A.A. is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization or institution.”
