Life Changers: The Groups


Listen Later

This series focuses on Harold Begbie’s book Life Changers. First published in 1922 it describes key elements in Frank Buchman’s program of radical change from which AA drew so many of its principles and practices. Studying the source material for the 12-Steps can give us insights into the transformational process the Group was trying to achieve both in individuals and in nations. They can prove invaluable to anyone whose recovery has lost its “zing” or to individuals unable to recover because of a “watered down” recovery approach. Fr. Bill focuses on the final chapter in the 13th edition. It is an article on the Groups written in 1929 by John McCook Roots and published in the Atlantic Monthly.
