In this Big Book Workshop, Lacy M. and Lisa K. break down the Preface and Forewords of the Fourth Edition of the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous. They cover what it means to be a “basic text,” following instructions “precisely,” the traditions, belief vs. dependence on a Higher Power, and more.
Q&A includes “What is the difference between recovered and recovering?” and “How do I answer when someone asks if I want a drink OR why I don’t drink?”
