Thursday Big Book Step Study

Please note: There was a recording created for the meeting which was held on January 1, 2009. We will post it as soon as it is available.

First to answer a question I received this week: Yes, it is o.k. to pass on the “set aside” prayer. In fact it is a act of loving kindness to do so, for it helps a person become teachable and humble and learn what their Higher Power wants them to learn. The author is unknown to me. I received this prayer at a Big Book step study workshop at the Bill Wilson Inn. It’s in Dorset, Vermont.

2. How has delusion of your addiction played a part in your life? How has it prevented you from doing the next right action?
