Addiction Recovery Series: Step 3 - Trust in God

Step 3: Trust in God Decide to turn your will and life over to the care of God the Eternal Father and His Son, Jesus Christ. At times life can be tough. Some are born into less than fortunate circumstances. Although we are entitled to a father and mother in this life, not everyone is blessed with a loving, stable or faith promoting home. Throughout our lives we make plans and those plans do not always turn out according to our desires. We may even feel at times as if life is completely stacked against us. Current or past unresolved circumstances can leave us feeling like God does not care or maybe even that He is not there at all. In this video Sharon tells of experiencing feelings like this and how she found it within herself to turn her will and life over to the care of God.

Addiction Recovery Series: Step 2 - Hope

Step 2: Hope 
Come to believe that the power of God can restore you to complete spiritual health.

When we feel guilt there is something deep within us that says, ‘I did something wrong.’ This can be a good internal barometer to guide and help us to become better. But when shame is felt, it brings with it the feeling and belief that, ‘there must be something wrong with me.’ Shame is a companion to addiction and compounds with every failed effort to quit. Eventually, these failed attempts leave a person feeling hopeless and believing that there is no way out. No one sets out to become an addict. It’s not who you are or who you are meant to become. Preston’s Story about Drug Addiction Recovery demonstrates how there is a way back and how our spiritual health can be restored. It is possible to be forgiven and to feel the love of God.

Addiction Recovery Series: Step 1 - Honesty

Step 1: Honesty
Admit that you, of yourself, are powerless to overcome your addictions and that your life has become unmanageable. 

Secrecy perpetuates addiction. Unless the secrets are out and properly confronted, the addiction will continue to thrive. Denial of the problem and its affects prevents a person from seeing the way out. But there is a way to get back to who you are at your core, and it begins with honesty. This video demonstrates how secrecy feeds the addiction, leading us far away from others and ourselves. But honesty and admitting powerlessness are the first steps to confronting and overcoming addiction.
