Mark H is from from Dallas Texas, he is leading a big book study covering steps 5-9, this was recorded in San Diego in 1994 at an unknown event. Mark was a very prolific circuit speaker for many years. This also feels like he is cut off mid sentence at the end, from what I understand this is all there was recorded, by the time we get there he has covered the vast majority of the subject.

Angie P from Cincinnati Ohio is todays speaker telling her story at the 5th Tradition Group in Atlanta Georgia, I think this speak is from April of 2013.

Angie has gotten to be one of my favorite speakers, do a quick search and you will find about half a dozen shares from her over the years on the podcast. She is always funny while delivering a sincere message of recovery and one way you will always know you are hearing her speak is she ends every speak by singing Amazing Grace.

The Little Red Book

In 1942, Ed W. began teaching the “Twelve Step Study” classes that helped the Minneapolis Group achieve their 75% recovery rate. Then in 1946, he and Barry C. (The first sober A.A. in the state) published the lectures used for these classes as a book. Initially titled The Twelve Steps, it was affectionately nicknamed “The little red book.”

Back in print for the first time in more than 65 years, the original 1946 edition reveals firsthand how some of A.A.’s earliest members made the program their way of life. Everyone from newcomers to oldtimers will find a wealth of practical experience in this comprehensive guide to the Twelve Steps.
