Ebby Thacher & Jim Burwell — Historic AA Talk (September 1958)

Ebby Thatcher is widely known as the man who carried the spiritual message that helped lead Bill Wilson toward sobriety. His experience with the Oxford Group and emphasis on spiritual surrender became a cornerstone in the formation of Alcoholics Anonymous. Jim Burwell, often referred to as one of AA’s “elder statesmen,” played a critical role in shaping the fellowship’s early spiritual language. His insistence on honesty, personal freedom, and the right to individual belief helped influence AA’s inclusive spiritual approach and long-term unity.
