Recovery: Developing Habits That Heal
Have you discovered that there is at least one area of your life that grabs ahold of you and doesn’t seem to want to let go? It eventually leads to an addictive habit that is hard to break. This is one of the most painful experiences anyone can have - no matter what the subject. Many Christians experience internal conflict that surfaces in an increased feeling of guilt – between knowing what is right, what the Bible says is right, and behavior that we know is wrong for us, but cannot control. Our Recovery Series is about releasing the grip of addiction and renewing faith in God.
God wants to show us how to you can break free and enjoy the kind of life he wants for you.
This series uses the 12 steps of recovery to invite all of us into a journey that will draw us closer to the love of God. Our Lord offers to break the chains that hold us trapped and helps us to develop habits that heal instead of causing pain.
