Lost to posterity, these stories have remained unseen by millions who got sober using the third and fourth editions of the Big Book. Vital in both their content and message, these lost stories from the early decades of AA are no less powerful today than they were when first printed in 1939 or 1955.

For Christmas 2018, my brother, a pilot with American Airlines, gave me a gift that became the experience of a lifetime: 12 months of free travel anywhere American Airlines flies. Thus began a year long journey that took me from the rocky coasts of Portugal, to the hot sands of Morocco, to the mangrove swamps of Panama, with many places beyond and between.

Drawing Lines Building Bridges seeks to bring clarity to the confusion Christians have today concerning what to do about homosexuality in the church and how to respond to homosexuals in their lives.

Let’s be honest, most of us would like to be a little happier. It’s a natural human desire. Unfortunately, it’s also natural for us to do things that actually decrease our happiness. When interacting with others we tend to tell, talk, and take too much. Telling, talking, and taking don’t make us happier - asking, listening, and giving do. Ask, listen, and give. These three simple habits strengthen our relationships with others, and stronger relationships (not more fame, fortune, or achievement) are the real keys to greater happiness.

Language is the most beautiful gift, the most heavenly tool accessible to mankind. Let us not make of it a mockery. My opposition to the entries within as “things people shouldn’t say” is born of respect for our language. It is not for the prevention of harm or any other great evil, if there be any. It is merely for the sake that we can express ourselves better. Let us fill this capacity. Let us meet this destiny. Let us talk good.

In its narration, some slight liberties have been taken to make accessible obscure words and references that some modern listeners may find challenging. The retained dialogues and dialects are those of Charles Dickens and remain faithful to his writing.
