Do Tell!: Stories By Atheists and Agnostics in AA

Do Tell!: Stories By Atheists and Agnostics in AA

As AA Historian Ernie Kurtz put it, â€œStorytelling is the essential dynamic of AA.â€ Do Tell! contains thirty stories â€“ an equal number by women and men â€“ by atheists and agnostics who tell us â€œwhat it was like, what happened and what itâ€™s like nowâ€ as they made their way to a life of long-term sobriety within the rooms of Alcoholics Anonymous. It is in sharing our â€œexperience, strength and hopeâ€ in recovery that we are able to help others within our Fellowship. There are today far too few stories by and about nonbelievers within â€œtraditionalâ€ AA, which all too often is overtly and overly religious. Thus this book, a â€œrichly textured collection of recovery stories by non-believers... a book that would certainly have made a difference in the early days of my stumble toward sobrietyâ€. (From the Foreword by Marya Hornbacher, author of Waiting: A Nonbelieverâ€™s Higher Power) As the Introduction to Do Tell! puts it, the book gives a voice to atheists and agnostics who often feel isolated within the rooms of AA and is one more step towards reshaping the culture of Alcoholics Anonymous.
