Learning to lead a life of goodness and to live a life in the spirit.

A series of White Papers on the subject of the ‘Alcoholics Anonymous’ Twelve Step Program. May these White Papers add a positive dialogue on the AA way of life. In AA we are encouraged to lead a life of goodness and to live a life in the spirit.

A White Paper is an authoritative report or guide that informs readers concisely about a complex issue and presents the issuing body’s philosophy on the matter.

A White Paper will be published on Medium every Friday. One White Paper will be published every week. See below the White Papers you can expect coming down the line. Please hit the green notification button to be alerted to the next White Paper hot off the press. Please also make comments and help us start a dialogue. Let us share our tools in the tool box on the pathway to God realization.
