Favorite AA Passages  All passages below are from the book Alcoholics Anonymous unless otherwise stated.God could and would if He were sought. Page 60 You were 100% hopeless apart from divine help. Page 43 There is One who has all power-that One is God. May you find Him now! Page 59 If there was a Devil, he seemed the Boss Universal, and he certainly had me. Page 11 All went well for a time, but he failed to enlarge his spiritual life. Page 35 The Lord has been so wonderful to me curing me of this terrible disease that I just want to keep telling people about it, has been a sort of golden text for the A.A. program and for me. Page 191 For if an alcoholic failed to perfect and enlarge his spiritual life through work and self-sacrifice for others, he could not survive the certain trials and low spots ahead. Page 14 The point is, that we are willing to grow along spiritual lines. Page 60 The Bible was stressed as reading material, of course. Page 151 Dr. Bob and the Good Old Timers You may be suffering from an illness which only a spiritual experience will conquer. Page 44 After a while we had to face the fact that we must find a spiritual basis of life - or else. Page 44 We have been spiritually sick.

Page 127 Assuming we are spiritually fit, we can do all sorts of things alcoholics are not supposed to do. People have said we must not go where liquor is served; we must not have it in our homes; we must shun friends who drink; we must avoid moving pictures which show drinking scenes; we must not go into bars; our friends must hide their bottles if we go to their houses; we mustn't think or be reminded about alcohol at all. Our experience shows that this is not necessarily so. We meet these conditions every day. An alcoholic who cannot meet them, still has an alcoholic mind; there is something the matter with his spiritual status. Page 100 Every few days this doctor suggests our approach to one of his patients. Understanding our work, he can do this with an eye to selecting those who are willing and able to recover on a spiritual basis. Page 162 We can laugh at those who think spirituality the way of weakness. Page 68 We are convinced that a spiritual mode of living is a most powerful health restorative.
