What is Celebrate Recovery?
Celebrate Recovery is a Christ-centered 12-step program that provides people the resources and relationships to help recover from life’s hurts, habits, and hang-ups. This is a program for anyone struggling with past or current dysfunctions or compulsions, whether they are affecting their own life or the lives of those around them.
The Bible clearly states that “all have sinned.” It is our nature to sin. None of us are untainted. Because of sin, we’ve all hurt ourselves, we’ve all hurt other people, and others have hurt us. This means each of us needs repentance and recovery in order to live our lives the way God intended.
Only one quarter of attendees in Celebrate Recovery are struggling with drug and alcohol addictions. All others are those with ANY type of issue someone would seek freedom from. This is a 12-step program for life!
The Purpose of CR:
The purpose of Celebrate Recovery is to fellowship and celebrate God’s healing power in our lives through the 12 Steps and 8 Recovery Principles based on the Beatitudes in Matthew 5.
This experience allows us to “be changed.” We open the door of sharing our experiences, strengths and hopes with one another. We become willing to accept God’s grace in solving our lives’ problems. We begin to grow spiritually. We become free from our addictive, compulsive, and dysfunctional behaviors.
This freedom creates peace, serenity, joy, and most importantly, a stronger personal relationship with God and others. As we progress through the program we discover our personal, loving and forgiving Higher Power-Jesus Christ.
