Ever since our January conferences in the San Francisco Bay Area and in Orange County, interest has grown and grown in the new book by Dick B. and Ken B. has grown. Its title is Stick with the Winners! How to Conduct More Effective 12-Step Recovery Meetings Using Conference-Approved Literature: A Dick B. Guide.
You can obtain it in trade cover right now by going to the Dick B. website front page www.dickb.com. It's a succinct 89 pages. It is sent to you print-on-demand, direct from the printer to you. It's reasonably priced at $19.95.
And it will help you form groups that cover old school A.A., Conference-approved literature, and the way to use both today to help the still suffering alcoholic or addict who needs and wants God's help.
We will be discussing the chapters from time to time to encourage you to see and use its valuable information. You can also download a copy for $9.95.
Now is the time to get answers to the frequently asked: "How do I start an early A.A. Christian Fellowship Group today."

Background Reasons for Asking Your Help
An event of great significance occurred recently with regard
to our work of unearthing, collating, reporting, and disseminating the history
of Alcoholics Anonymous and the Christian Recovery Movement. And then in our
establishing and enlarging ChristianRecoveryRadio.com
We devoted twenty-two years to travel, interviews,
examination of books and records, visits to archives, acquisition of massive
historical documents and books, and then analyzing them and reporting them—one
by one—as the truth appeared.
The cost was quite large. It would have been far beyond my
reach, resources, and retirement income financially. It involved the cost of
printing more than 125 titles, counting reprints and subsequent revisions; the
cost of storing about 14,000 books year after year, and then shipping them. It
involved the large cost of our traveling with attendant air fare,
transportation, meals, lodging, and incidentals. It involved the expenditure of
immense amount of time and effort by my son Ken B. and even many others. And,
of course, it involved acquisition, maintenance, and replacement of office
equipment, supplies, and incidentals. Finally, one of the most productive, yet
expensive aspects was traveling to, staying over a week or so, and speaking at
or meeting with scores of AAs, NAs, treatment people, historical notables,
historians, curators, clergy, physicians, and large numbers of Christian
recovery leaders, workers, newcomers, and the concerned public.
For the past six months, we have worked hard to scale back
all the typical past expenses of books, travel, printing, computers, storage,
internet presentations, conferences, and meetings. Our books are now
print-on-demand which means neither printing 5000 books at a time,
cross-shipping, them, and storing them. And now, slowly but surely, our books
are being published in electronic form.
In doing so, we have made known to a growing body of
churches, clergy, recovery pastors, care pastors, Christian recovery leaders,
benefactors, and others our plan to continue our work of making the application
of time-honored Christian recovery tools available to a host of people and
institutions in the recovery arena, including those who want God’s help, and
may be receptive to Christian fellowship of the kind manifested in First
Century Christianity, the early Akron A.A. Christian fellowship, and in the
hearts and minds of hungry recovered, recovering, and new alcoholics and
addicts and those with life-controlling problems.
The need for continuing, expanding, and widely distributing
materials exists because of the secularization of our society and our recovery
fellowships, programs, and movements. It exists because of the dearth of
information today about the effectiveness of Christian recovery organizations,
leaders, and societies long before and at the founding of the modern-day Twelve
Step and Anonymous groups. And it exists because of the incredible lack of
knowledge that those who treat, those who counsel, those who speak about, those
who lead, those who sponsor, those who serve, and those who are new to recovery
from the ravages of alcoholism and addiction.
We also believe, from the trends and topics of the times,
that a new approach is long overdue in order to accomplish our mission. Thus
there is a greater need among us as volunteers for low costs, eliminating
storage and shipping and printing expenses, using the tools of the time—Videos,
audios, radio, radio programs, YouTube, forums, blogs, Facebook, Twitter,
social media, newsletters---and making most of the material free for the user
to hear, view, obtain, organize, lead, and use.
The Plan for the Agape Circle
Ten organizations and
individuals have now become part of the Agape Circle
Several churches and individuals have already recognized the
modest need and are contributing $50.00 per month each to Dick B. to support
the continued research, writing, expansion, counsel, and growth of the
application of old school A.A. and its Christian principles and practices in
Alcoholics Anonymous, 12 Step programs, and recovery work today.
For large cost items, including those for conferences, major
publishing expenses, and travel, several have joined on this basis. And we
still invite and do receive tax deductible donations that enable the remaining and
much more costly work. And we still define the needs and invite those gifts.
But for the day in day out work right here on Maui, our
dream is to have a circle—an “Agape Circle”—of at least twenty Christian
churches or recovery groups and leaders who will graciously provide a monthly
stipend payable to Dick B. in amount of $50.00 each month.
We now have ten, and we invite you to join them. As stated,
several are doing, or are about to do, just that. We believe the $50.00 monthly
amount is reasonable. We have specific plans to live within the circle
contributions. And we will deeply appreciate your becoming part of the circle
with your church or recovery program, or Christian fellowship.
The answer desired?
Yes, Dick!
Our group will help
your work by sending to Dick B., PO Box 837, Kihei, HI 96753 a donation of
$50.00 per month as our contribution to the Agape Circle.

The Trip to A.A.’s Spiritual Roots Centers on Vermont
The Trip to A.A.’s Spiritual Roots Centers
on Vermont
An International Christian Recovery
Coalition Fall Leaves Cadre Workshop
With Informative Visits to Historic A.A.--Related
Locations in Vermont
By Dick B.
© 2012 Anonymous. All
rights reserved
Come Join Us!
As we have said, we are
planning a Fall Leaves Workshop centered on the New England Area and definitely
zooming in on historic A.A.-related locations in Vermont: the Green Mountain
territory of Bill W.’s and Dr. Bob’s youth. It’s where my son Ken and I
identified and examined in great depth some of the Christian roots of A.A. And we
gathered an immense amount of historical evidence, embodied it in our books and
articles, posted it on the Web, and included it in our www.ChristianRecoveryRadio.com presentations. But there’s nothing like the
excitement of seeing it all for yourself with excellent guidance. And there’s
nothing like learning it for yourself so that you can be one of those
experienced Christian leaders who can transmit A.A. founding information fully
and accurately
You will be able to
participate in September 2012 events involving:
1. St. Johnsbury and Dr. Bob’s boyhood home;
2. North Congregational Church—the Smith Family church
and location of the historical collections in Dr. Bob Core Library;
3. Identifying Akron A.A.’s “Christian fellowship” program with Dr. Bob’s
Young People’s Society of Christian Endeavor;
4. The immense historical resources in the St. Johnsbury Athenaeum (library);
5. The St. Johnsbury Fairbanks Museum, the Courthouse
where Dr. Bob’s dad was probate judge, the former location of the YMCA building
where Dr. Bob’s father was President;
6. St. Johnsbury Academy—where Dr. Bob’s mother was a
teacher and later an historian, where Dr. Bob’s father was an examiner, and
where Dr. Bob attended daily chapel and weekly church services and Bible
studies, and participated in YMCA events;
7. East Dorset and Bill W.’s birthplace;
8. The Wilson House where Bill W. was born and where many
A.A. meetings, seminars, and tours and offered;
9. The Griffith House where Bill was raised by his
maternal grandparents for several years and where he studied the Bible with his
maternal grandfather, Fayette Griffith;
10. The Griffith House Library which probably contains the
largest collection
of A.A. historical books and articles and pamphlets
and memorabilia of
any place in the world
11. East Dorset Congregational Church, where Bill, Bill’s
parents, and
both
sets of grandparents attended; and where Bill attended church and
Sunday
school, along with revival and conversion and Temperance meetings;
12.
The Bill and Lois Wilson gravesites;
13.
Manchester, where Bill attended Burr and Burton Academy, attending its
required
daily chapel and four-year Bible study course, and was its president
of
the Young Men’s Christian Association during his senior year; and
14.Your optional personal detour to see
the Fall Leaves display.
Want to come?
This cadre tour and workshop
will give you an accurate knowledge of A.A.
history, A.A. historical collections, and A.A.’s Christian roots and origins most
have probably never heard about or understood. It will provide you with important
keys to the Christian upbringing of Dr. Bob and Bill W. It will show you more about real “spirituality”;
ie., the relationship with God that the Big Book talks about. You visit a
location with thousands of A.A.-related historical items. It will take you to an
area filled with New England charm. It will be far more than just a walk
through a memorial building or two. It will be at a time when the Fall Leaves
displays are there. And Dick B. and Ken B. will be there to show you what’s
what.
What is needed to make it
happen:
Prayer.
A
real interest in learning something very vital about “old-school” A.A. ideas
and their applicability today.
A
zest for a guided tour to inspect, learn about, and handle scads and scads of
historical evidence, attend meetings if you wish, and hear Dick B. and Ken B. report
on 22 years of research as you move about and stop for some short talks.
We
hope to develop a cadre of long-sober folks who can learn and absorb the
important Vermont history of A.A.’s Christian origins, the Christian upbringing
of Bill and Bob, and how they can be applied today
Benefactors
to provide funds for our travel are needed.
Your
plans for a car or car pool with friends.
Accommodations
at the St. Johnsbury Marriott hotel and in East Dorset.
And
an essential willingness to walk, look, listen, and learn.
Since this will be an
International Christian Recovery Coalition workshop, we are looking for a cadre
of Christian leaders and workers in the recovery arena who want to learn and
pass on to others what we’ve found and you have actually seen.
This will be unlike other
history and archive conferences, seminars, and forays.
You’ll see and enter the
buildings. You’ll pick up and examine the historical items. You’ll explore on
your own, too. You’ll hear from two speakers who have researched, written
about, and spoken about the whole scene—many times.
This may be the only time in
your life that you will have such an opportunity.
This July is the month to
plan and let us know if you’ll be coming and when. It is also the month to help
fund our trip. And then to make your car and hotel reservations.
The light is green this July,
and we’ll go. In August, we’ll be all set. For more information, contact Dick
B. by email at DickB@DickB.com.

Simple Spiritual Tools for Hungry AA History Hunters
A Special Message for
Hurried, Hungry,
History Hunters
By Dick B.
© 2012 Anonymous. All
rights reserved
[Christians in recovery are active, busy, and have a full
platter with their families and friends, their jobs and activities, their
church and fellowship activities, and the time they spend in A.A.
So who has time to read the Bible, the Big Book, Dick B.'s
44 A.A. history titles, and over 1,100 Dick B. articles on A.A. history and the
Christian Recovery Movement to boot. Answer? Most people I've met have just
wanted to get on with helping others in their own particular arena.
Yet, I have found that most of the people who have read
and/or acquired Dick B. audio, video, and/or text-based materials have done so
because they had: (1) known very little about early A.A.'s Christian origins
and biblical roots; (2) sometimes been quashed when they had spoken about the
Creator, His Son Jesus Christ, or the Bible in 12-Step recovery meetings; (3)
known that A.A. without God is not enough; (4) learned that early AAs were able
to develop a program that looked very much like First Century Christianity in
the Book of Acts; (5) really wanted to help others find the same peace, power, love, guidance, healing, and
deliverance by the power of God that the Bible promises; and (6) not been keen
about the "wisdom of the rooms," nor about "spirituality"
(which was somehow supposed to be different from "religion"), nor
about light bulbs as higher powers, nor about "choosing" one's
"own conception of" a "god." They had known that there had
to have been more!]
You have real choices:
• Encourage,
organize or participate in a Christian Recovery program that meets daily needs.
A program that includes opportunities for natural people to be saved and come
to the knowledge of the truth; daily contact with believers; and frequent and
regular participation in A.A. meetings and/or Christian Recovery meetings that
are benefitting from the roles played by God, His Son Jesus Christ, and the
Bible in early A.A.'s astonishing successes.
• Become a
"Participant" in the International Christian Recovery Coalition-at no
cost to you (www.ChristianRecoveryCoalition.com).
• Acquire the
A.A. and Christian Recovery tools that others are now using successfully
throughout the world. For example:.
1. The Good Book and the Big Book: A.A.'s Roots in the Bible
(http://dickb.com/goodbook.shtml).
2. The Dick B. Christian Recovery Guide
(http://www.dickb.com/Christian-Recovery-Guide-files/).
3. Stick with the Winners!: How to Conduct More Effective
12-Step Recovery Meetings Using Conference-Approved Literature: A Dick B. Guide
for Christian Leaders and Workers in the Recovery Arena.
(http://www.dickb.com/Stick-with-the-Winners.shtml).
4. The 27-video "Stick with the Winners!" class.
(http://christianrecoveryradio.com/Stick-with-the-Winners.shtml). Most of the
videos in the class are fairly brief and complement the foregoing tools.
• Obtain as in
individual--or for your study or recovery group, or for your church--at a big
discount, the 29-volume "Dick B. A.A. History and Christian Recovery
Reference Set." (http://www.dickb.com/index.html#Major_Christian_Recovery_Resource_2).
To read every line of every volume? Only a select few would pursue that
objective. To study the volumes one-by-one? Some may do that. To keep on hand
so that you can consult the appropriate volume for documented facts on the
various topics you or your group want to know more about? Now we're talking!
How can you use "The Dick B. A.A. History and Christian
Recovery Reference Set?" Here are some ways: (1) If you want to know the
content of, and how to study, the three sections of the Bible early AAs
especially emphasized-Jesus' Sermon on the Mount (Matthew chapters 5-7), 1
Corinthians 13, and the Book of James-use The James Club and the Original A.A.
Program's Absolute Essentials. (2) If you want to benefits from the roots of
the Eleventh Step, "prayer and meditation," and Quiet Time, use Good
Morning!: Quiet Time, Morning Watch,
Mediation, and Early A.A. (3) If you want to know how the Oxford Group really
did influence Bill Wilson and the Big Book's program, use The Oxford Group
& Alcoholics Anonymous. (4) If you would like to know exactly what Rev. Sam
Shoemaker taught Bill W. that made Bill call him a "cofounder" of
A.A. and the well-spring of the Twelve Step ideas, use New Light on Alcoholism:
God, Sam Shoemaker, and A.A.
• Become an
informed leader for life so that you can easily pass on researched principles,
practices, and biblical ideas that were and are the foundation for a prosperous
and healthy life as a recovered and saved formerly suffering drunk or addict.

Development of the Christian Recovery Radio Program Idea
Just a few months ago, at a Christian Recovery Leaders
Conference at The Crossing Church in Costa Mesa, California, Dick B. expressed
a desire to have a radio show where he could interview the many Christian Recovery
Leaders in the United States and other countries. People Dick has come to know
personally by speaking at their conferences, working with them on their
programs, writing on their forums, exchanging emails and phone calls, and
holding meetings with them to exchange facts and encourage networking.
That Christian Recovery Radio idea did not gel right away.
Then, only a month ago, at a Christian Recovery Leaders
Workshop and Conference at His Place Church in Westminster, California, Dick B.
repeated his dreamed of idea. And Michael Liimatta, a well-known Christian
recovery leader, former Education Director for the Association of Gospel Rescue
Missions, Founder and Education Director of City Division College, Consultant
and Web Developer/Programmer, InfoWeb Services, and now a Principal with the
Not-For-Profit Practice of OneAccord,
offered the much desired solution. Michael had been a radio interviewer for
many years. And Michael recognized the importance of such a Christian Recovery
Radio show to enhance the growing Christian Recovery Movement and the
leadership provided through International Christian Recovery Coalition. www.ChristianRecoveryRadio.com.
It was to let the public hear directly what a wide variety of Christian
recovery leaders could tell the afflicted and affected about their approaches
to recovery by the power of God among those who want His help.
The show was set up almost immediately. Interviews of those
in Kansas City, Missouri; Newton Falls Ohio; Jamestown, Tennessee; Akron, Ohio;
Nyack, New York; Austin, Texas; New York City; East Dorset, Vermont; Bridgeport,
Connecticut; Los Gatos, California; San Jose California, San Diego, California;
Brentwood, California; Livermore, California; Oroville, California; Costa Mesa,
California; Westminster, California; Huntington Beach, California; Ontario,
Canada; Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Daytona Beach, Florida; Wyoming, Delaware;
and Miami, Florida were interviewed in staccato form These are the interviews thus far. They can be
heard right now on www.ChristianRecoveryRadio.com. They are archived for future
listening. And they begin the long-awaited series where AA Historian Dick B.
interviews authors, historians, editors, AA speakers, philanthropists, recovery
directors, archivists, clergy, garden variety alcoholics and addicts and
codependents, treatment program directors, recovery pastors, counselors,
chaplains, spiritual retreat leaders, interventionists, therapists, physicians,
professors, youth ministers, and leaders in some of the major bridge groups
like Alcoholics Victorious, Overcomers Outreach Inc, CityTeam International,
Teen Challenge, Youth with a Mission, Celebrate Recovery, Alcoholics for
Christ, Footprints, Came to Believe Retreats, churches, prison outreach,
Salvation Army, Christian Endeavor, Christian Recovery Fellowships, and many
many more.
