Unity
For our group purpose there is but one ultimate authority – a loving God as He may express Himself in our group conscience.
“As you’ll recall historically, the climate was not fully positive for ‘organizing’ Alcoholics Anonymous in the late ’40s and early ’50s. Folks thought things might get too complicated if Traditions were to come in line and a General Service Conference started. They worried about ‘control issues.’ Thus, the line about ‘our leaders are but trusted servants, they do not govern’ was added to allay these fears.” Box 4-5-9 Fall 2012
