Is it available to read on line? I don't mind paying for it but I don't know when I'm going to be able to get to a meeting.
I'm really feeling like I need to read the "chapter to the agnostic" right now.
The chapter to the agnostics was one of the first places I had to go as well.
Remember that your "higher power" is not dictated by anyone else, nor is the interaction you choose to have with that higher power.
Phil gave you the link to 2 good online books, my friend, but there is also other literature available for little cost on the officail AA World Services website. One of my favorites is "Living Sober".
As far as the Big Book on line, try reading some of the stories as well. They can tell you something about that which you seek.
Good luck,Duane, may you find new peace in sobriety.

You can also order the BB, 12&12, etc at Amazon.com. It's a little pricier but you can get them shipped overnight.
Glad you're here, Tips!
Keep coming.

Thanks.
I just read 'Bills Story' and it really struck a chord with me...so many similarities, so many of the same thoughts and feelings. I thought I had read it a few years ago but it all seemed new to me. It never ceases to amze me how un-unique my drinking career is.
