The Atlantic Group Tuesday Night Speaker Meeting May 5, 2026 10 Minute Speaker on 5th Tradition: Nick D. Main Speaker: Grant S. Welcome to the Atlantic Group Podcast. Our 7th tradition states…
It's a very big deal to speak for my home group, to speak here on Tuesday night, and to speak on a tradition.
And if you're a little bit confused about the beautiful space in the suit in this book report that I'm about to give you, if you're thinking to yourself, this isn't what I expected from Alcoholics Anonymous, just give me two minutes.
And I also know a lot of people in this room and they're pretty much on par with with what you would expect from, you know what I mean, from A.A.
The thing we all got in common is like, we all walked in here failures, right? I speak for myself.
I walked into this room a failure, and a lot of people don't like that, but it's the truth, you know? And nobody chooses to come to Alcoholics Anonymous.
Life chooses that for us, right? So we got the long form of Tradition Five, Each Alcoholics Anonymous group ought to be a spiritual entity having but one primary purpose, that's in italics, that of carrying its message to the alcoholic who still suffers.
I didn't really know that surprisingly when I got here, but it is a spiritual program.
I didn't know that when I came into Alcoholics Anonymous, right? I thought it was a little bit different.
