The following is the meeting format for our group:
AA MEETING FORMAT:
The purpose of this Big Book study group is to READ & DISCUSS the Big Book of AA and other AA related literature. The last Wednesday of every month is reserved for a Speaker who will be chosen at random. Speakers will be asked to share on what is what like, what happened, and what it is like now for ~30-45mins.
Suggestions for making the most of these meetings...
Highlight actual passages IN THE BOOK (you can do this even if you use a digital copy) and/or take notes while you're reading so when you share you can discuss something specific.
The primary purpose of this meeting is to READ THE BOOK, first and foremost for our own individual recovery, and secondly to work towards understanding it's application in our lives and the fellowship. Any alcoholic can attend to listen but participation is key for recovery. Some of us have read the book before, others may never have opened it. This is an opportunity to read about the foundation of our recovery program while hearing other's thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Ultimately it’s about helping each other stay sober a day at a time.
Only you know why you're here. If you’re honest with both yourself and the fellowship there will always be help for you to recover from what is for most of us a debilitating and deadly disease if not addressed through a program of recovery.
