Part 1: pin no. 235934# Part 2: pin no. 578290# Pick a handout from the website that you find especially valuable in your walk with the Big Book. Share it with your buddy, get a folder and write for example: ‘This would be good for step 1,2. etc. ..’ AA 12 x 12 top of page 107 Step Twelve: ‘Having had a spiritual experience as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to alcoholics, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.’ He has been granted a gift which amounts to a new state of consciousness and being. He has been set on a path which tells him he is really going somewhere, that life is not a dead end, not something to be endured or mastered. In a very real sense he has been transformed because he has laid hold of a source of strength which, in one way or another, he had hitherto denied himself. He finds himself in possession of a degree of honesty, tolerance, unselfishness, peace of mind, and love of which he had thought himself quite incapable. What he has received is a free gift, and yet usually, at least in some small part, he has made himself ready to receive it. Q1. Where in your life do you feel you are enduring more than enjoying? b) How can you turn the situation around and see it with eyes of gratitude? c) Have been able to rise up and out of a situation (past or present) and find things to be grateful for? d) If you currently have a situation in your life, maybe write a Dear God letter asking for help on how to rise above it. Read it to your buddies. Say every day: I am going to make an action plan as to how to rise above rather than endure this situation. Q2. Life is a half full glass not a half empty one. Write on this slogan or incorporate it into your answer to the above questions. In a very real sense he has been transformed because he has laid hold of a source of strength which, in one way or another, he had hitherto denied himself. Q3. What is your definition of being transformed? How has your life has been transformed? Q4. Is God a source of strength to you? Q5. Do you find yourself in possession of a degree of honesty? How much? Have you reached 100% honesty about 100% of your life? If not, where is the dishonesty? (Maybe with yourself, your husband, children, etc.) Q6. This is the first day of the rest of your life. What are you going to do with it? Please text 617 774 7916 or email [email protected] any acronyms or slogans for the website and use in the next Big Book workshop. Ends
