Christian Recovery Resources Rooted in Documented A.A. History
The most powerful Christian recovery resources are the ones grounded in what actually worked. This page points program directors, chaplains, and ministry leaders to the primary-source record of early Alcoholics Anonymous’s Christian foundation — the 31-volume Dick B. A.A. History Reference Set. For A.A.’s own overview of that history, see the official History of A.A. You can order the complete set or see what it includes.
For Program Directors and Curriculum Directors at Christian Addiction Treatment Centers
If you lead a faith-based recovery program, you already know the challenge: most A.A. resources strip out the very thing that made early A.A. work—the role of God, His Son Jesus Christ, and the Bible. Your clients deserve curriculum that is historically grounded, scholarly, and rooted in the same spiritual foundation that produced A.A.’s astonishing early success rates.
Equip Your Program with the Most Thorough Christian Record of A.A. History
The Dick B. A.A. History Reference Set is the Christian recovery world’s permanent, irreplaceable record of the roles God, His Son Jesus Christ, and the Bible played in early A.A.’s astonishing successes. No other collection brings this Biblical focus and primary-source depth together in one place — and with Dick B. now gone, no one will produce a body of work quite like his again.
Why Program and Curriculum Directors Choose This Set
- Scholarly authority. 45 published titles, 1,750+ articles, and approximately 200 recorded audio talks—the result of 25 years of primary-source research by Dick B. (J.D., CDAAC; U.C. Berkeley Phi Beta Kappa; Stanford Law).
- Biblically rooted. Documents the exact prayers, Bible studies, Quiet Times, and Christian fellowship practices that produced A.A.’s earliest 75%–93% success rates.
- Curriculum-ready. 31 volumes give your staff and clients a depth of material that supports months of teaching, reading assignments, and small-group study.
- Permanent and irreplaceable. Dick B. passed September 12, 2015. His life’s work is now complete, and this Set preserves the heart of it for the church and the recovery community.
