THE TWELVE STEPS AND RELATED SCRIPTURE

Our Life Recovery Program is a great opportunity for healing and personal growth. An opportunity to recover the fulfilling life and satisfying relationships you've always wanted. Life Recovery Group is a support group on steroids. The steroids being therapy. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll learn, you'll grow. This program includes individual, group, and family therapy. Seminars and retreats are held periodically.

The Life Recovery Program centers around The Twelve Steps. In addition to attending weekly groups you will work on the steps in your online workbook. There are 16 chapters in the online workbook. The curriculum is Bible based but not preachy. It is introspective causing you to look deep within yourself to make the change you desire. We encourage our participants to be committed to this process for as long as it takes to complete all the lessons. You didn't get where you are overnight and you are not going to just change all the sudden. You will start feeling better and doing better - but we warn our participants that doesn't mean you need to quit working your program.

Step One

We admitted we were powerless over the effects of our separation from God-that our lives had become unmanageable.

I know nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nalure. For I have
the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. (Romans 7:18)

Step Two

Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.

For it is God who works in you to will and to act according to his good purpose. (Philippians 2:13)

Step Three

Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.

Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies
as living sacrifices and pleasing to God-which is y'our spiritual worship. (Romans 12: 1)

Step Four

Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.

Let us examine our ways and test them, and let us return to the Lord. (Lam. 3:40)

Step Five

Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.

Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you
may be healed. (James 5:16a)

Step Six

Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.

Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will lift you. up. (James 4:10)

Step Seven

Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings.

If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and
purify us from all unrighteousness. (I John 1:9)

Step Eight

Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all.

Do to others as you would have them to do you. (Luke 6:31)

Step Nine

Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so
would injure them or others.

Therefore, if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that
your brother hm something against you, leave your gift there in front of the
altar. First go and be reconciled to your brother; then come and offer your:
gift. (Matthew 5:23-24)

Step Ten

Continued to take personal inventory and, when we were wrong, promptly admitted it.

So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don't fall.
(I Corinthians 10:12)

Step Eleven

Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with
God as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us the power to carry that out.

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly. (Colossians 3:16a)

Step Twelve

Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry
this message to others, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.

Brothers, if someone is caught in a sin, you who are spiritual should restore
him gently. But watch yourself, or you also may be tempted. (Galatians 6: I)
