Dear ESSAY
Dear ESSAY, Hello, my name is Jason A., and I have been an active member of SA since 2020.
Discussion Topic
In Luke's article, "The Carousel of Self", he describes the back-and-forth, the ups and downs of living in selfishness. There seems to be no steady flow of peace in the attempt to always stay "up".
SA CFC
SA has been a source of great strength and recovery during a time when all hope seemed lost.
Coming Next
The ESSAY’s December edition is “Amends: Straightening Out the Past”. We will be exploring the challenges that we faced when approaching this step that can sometimes be intimidating.
Editor’s Corner
You are invited to read this "Editor's Corner" in your home group during announcements.
What’s Going On in SA
In June, she presented Part One, the challenges of women in SA. Now she will focus on the solution as we know it today.
Dear ESSAY
Dear ESSAY, I am writing for two reasons. First, I have been receiving your ESSAY Journal for several years now, and the articles within it have changed my life and changed the inner person of who I really am.
What’s Going On in SA
This is a portion of the SA Trustees' letter to us all regarding the crisis of the Seventh Tradition. June, 2026
Editor’s Corner
You are invited to read this "Editor's Corner" in your home group during announcements. The August 2026 edition of ESSAY Magazine is a powerful theme that breaks open the topic of sharing in meetings.
Coming Next
Our next edition’s theme is “Made A Decision—Giving Our Lives to God." The whole purpose of the Steps is to enable us to give our lives to the "One who has all power." Admitting our powerlessness over our addiction and lives moves me into hope, Step Two, and into decision-making time, Step Three.
