The Anything Is Possible group's Sunday contingent has been reading the Big Book, a chapter or story at a time, for a year; and now we've reached the end. Instead of starting over, as many Big Book meetings do, we're turning in a new direction: we're going to start reading Experience, Strength & Hope.
Published by AA World Services in 2003, Experience, Strength & Hope collects together the various stories from the first three editions of the Big Book that were removed to make room for new stories in subsequent editions, including the current 4th Edition we use today. We think this will provide a "novel" (heh) experience for our members, simultaneously a fresh perspective and a look into our shared past.
