Celebrate Recovery

by Rick Warren, John Baker

Alcoholism - Divorce - Sexual Abuse - Codependency - Domestic Violence - Drug Addition - Sexual Addiction These words are about more than 'issues.' They're about people who sit as close to us as the next pew -- or our own. People struggling with problems that sermons or Bible studies alone won't solve. But there is a way the church can help the hurting move beyond their wounds to experience the healing and liberty of Christ. Celebrate Recovery fills a long-standing need in the church in its role as Christ's healing agent. Developed by John Baker and Rick Warren of the renowned Saddleback Church, this program's life-changing effectiveness has gained it an explosive, grass-roots popularity. Drawn from the Beatitudes, Celebrate Recovery helps people resolve painful problems in the context of the church as a whole. Rather than setting up an isolated recovery community, it helps participants and their churches come together and discover new levels of care, acceptance, trust, and grace. Whether your congregation is large or small, this fellowship-based curriculum truly will be a celebration of Christ in the life of your church and its members.

My husband and I ran a CR program about 4 years ago. We did go for the formal training at Saddleback church in California. The materials provided for leaders is excellent. It walks you through each step. I highly recommend it!

I listened to this "tape" set off of Audible.com on my iPhone. Great teaching on finding freedom from your Hurts, Habits and Hangups.
