BG2G "Church" / Chapters
This is where the 12-Step Program Culture and Absolute Truth combine to resurrect the Acts Church Paradigm. Our "Big Book" is the Christian Bible and our "Steps" are the six foundation doctrines of Christ as listed in Hebrews 6:1-2. Our meeting objectives will always be to provide a non-confrontational space to explore scriptures and freely express our thoughts and opinions regarding biblical standards of right and wrong. By promoting and expanding a fellowship model that incorporates the spiritual legacy framework of Alcoholics Anonymous, we will unite the body of Christ in America under a common purpose: To grow in the knowledge of the Only True God, in Jesus Christ whom God has sent, and help our members bring glory to God with our resources and efforts (John 17:3 & Romans 12:1). We believe that the collective power and wisdom of community conversations can take everyone involved to deeper insight of self, others, life and God.

Denominational walls don’t exist!
And where everyone is personally responsible for their own beliefs…
Doctrinal Controversies don’t divide!"
