We teach that Jesus Christ can deliver you from anything. We teach that your attitude must change before you can change. We Teach that you are able to change destructive behavior. We teach you must put into practice the things you learn. There is hope if you are willing. A Word about AA: We believe that the principles of AA were founded in the Bible; therefore we teach the same recovery steps that AA teaches except that we claim Jesus Christ as our higher power. Because our way of teaching is similar to 'the steps of AA' doesn't mean we are condoning or rejecting AA teachings, but rather we are simply teaching recovery principles found in the Bible. We believe that for MANY people with serious drug problems, REMOVAL from the environment where drugs are available & REMOVAL from the sources of pressure to use drugs is vital. We believe that solitude, time away to reflect on one's life & the unfolding of events that caused a need for drastic change is vital. We believe that the solutions to the underlying reasons WHY a person's life has spiraled out of control are often the result of the individual's choice to deviate from basic Biblical teachings. We believe that recovery can succeed through the development of a safe & trusting relationship designed to bring the person to a place where they can receive positive feedback, biblical instruction, and at times "difficult to hear" feedback that will help the person come to terms with aspects of themselves that may be difficult to acknowledge yet cause many of the chronic problems in their lives.
