Celebrate Recovery
Imagine a newfound sense of peace, serenity, and joy. Celebrate Recovery serves as a reminder that through God's love and grace, you can overcome any challenge and find hope and healing in your journey towards a healthier and happier life. We celebrate God’s healing power in your life through the 8 Recovery Principles and The Twelve Steps. Together we open the door to a stronger and more personal relationship with God by sharing our experiences, strengths, and hopes with one another. By committing to and applying these Biblical principles, you will begin to grow spiritually, accepting God's grace in solving life's problems, and become free from destructive behaviors.
"Commitment and compliance look the same, until they don't. If you don't work hard and fully commit, it's not going to happen."
-Josh Smith, Facilities Manager

Celebrate Recovery is a Christ-centered and Bible-based 12 Step Recovery Program. Through fellowship and community our small groups open up, share experiences, and find hope and healing. By committing to God and working through the 12 steps, you can find the strength and guidance needed to overcome your hurts, hang-ups, and habits, and transform your life. The steps involve acknowledging your powerlessness over your addiction, surrendering your life to God's care and guidance, and making amends to those you have harmed.

Not Sure Where or How to Start?
One of the best ways to find out if Celebrate Recovery will work for you is to attend a meeting this Friday. We invite you to join us at Big Group starting at 7pm. We have a seat reserved for you in the Newcomers 101 small group which breaks out at 8pm. If you have any questions, our Recovery Pastor, Rodney Alexander, is here to answer them.
Your Road to Recovery
These eight Recovery Principles are based on the Beatitudes by Rick Warren.
Realize I’m not God; I admit that I am powerless to control my tendency to do the wrong thing and my life is unmanageable.
“Happy are those who know they are spiritually poor.”
Earnestly believe that God exists, that I matter to Him, and that He has the power to help me recover.
“Happy are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.”
Consciously choose to commit all my life and will to Christ’s care and control.
“Happy are the meek.”
Openly examine and confess my faults to God, to myself, and to someone I trust.
“Happy are the pure in heart.”
Voluntarily submit to every change God wants to make in my life and humbly ask Him to remove my character defects.
​
Evaluate all my relationships. Offer forgiveness to those who have hurt me and make ammends for harm I’ve done to others except when to do so would harm them or others. “Happy are the merciful; happy are the peacemakers.”
Reserve a daily time with God for self examination, Bible readings, and prayer in order to know God and His will for my life and to gain the power to follow His will.
Yield myself to God to be used to bring this Good News to others, both by my examples and by my words.
“Happy are those who are persecuted because they do what God requires.”
The Landing
The Landing is a is a safe place for Middle and High School students to find community and freedom from the issues that are controlling your life. We are a beautiful community of strugglers that courageously enter this space to get honest about our pain, and the negative ways we may see ourselves, God, and others. In this process we come to accept that some of the habits we may have developed to escape our pain have caused destruction in our life and those close to us. No one has the ability, nor should they attempt to face their hurts on their own. If you recognize issues stemming from abuse, addiction, disorders, or anger, we invite you to join our next small group breakout session at Celebrate Recovery.​
The world's never looked more wounded, but my hope's never been more real.
'Cause there's no hurt my Jesus can't heal.
