Book Review: Christian Women in Recovery - the A.A. Pioneers
Summary: 3 Stars
Just a few words to call attention to the omissions. Anne Ripley Smith, wife of A.A. cofounder Dr. Bob, was called the "Mother of A.A." It was she who taught about God, the Bible, prayer, and guidance to early AAs and their families. She formed the first Women's Group in 1936--a year after A.A. itself was founded. Then there was Henrietta Buckler Seiberling who "infused much needed spirituality" into Dr. Bob and Bill in the founding days and helped the Christian Fellowship in Akron to produce the astonishing successes between 1935 and 1938. Finally, there was Grace Moore Snyder, a recovered alcoholic, a long-time AA worker, and the wife of the venerable Clarence Snyder. These three were "women in recovery." And their roles underline the part that Christian women played and can play when the goal is reliance on God, growth in fellowship with Him, and carrying the message of God's power to those who still suffer. God Bless, Dick B.Anne Smith's Journal, 1933-1939: A.A.'s Principles of Success; Henrietta B. Seiberling: Ohio's Lady with a Cause, Third Edition; That Amazing Grace: The Role of Clarence and Grace S. in Alcoholics Anonymous; Real Twelve Step Fellowship History
Summary of A Woman's Way Through the Twelve Steps
This illuminating view of how women understand and process the Twelve Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous explores such essential topics as spirituality, powerlessness, and the emergence of a woman's sense of feminine soul. A Woman's Way Through the Twelve Steps remains true to the underlying spiritual truths of the Twelve Step program of Alcoholics Anonymous while triumphantly overcoming the traditional male orientation of Alcoholics Anonymous. For every woman who has felt there are issues crucial to her recovery that just can't be brought up in a mixed-gender meeting, this book sheds encouraging feminine light on the wisdom of A.A.Substance Abuse Books
