Biblical Foundations:

• We embrace specific Scriptural doctrine as the basis for the 12 steps.

• Our program is hosted within church communities, drawing from denominational traditions.

• Eternal salvation and the existence of heaven/hell are integral aspects of our Christian worldview.

Spiritual Transformation:

• Participants work through the 12 steps, acknowledging their dependence on God’s grace.

• Prayer, Bible study, and fasting are woven into the recovery journey.

• Church fellowship provides a supportive environment for growth.

Embracers and Adapters:

• Embracers: Progressive faith communities appreciate both “spiritual” and “Christian” 12-step programs. They recognize Christ’s hidden presence, even in spiritual programs.

• Adapters: Evangelical believers value evidence-based outcomes while seeking deeper faith connections. They view mental health struggles as a disease, not moral failure.

Healing and Hope:

• Through fellowship, issue groups, and shared experiences, participants find hope and healing.

• Accepting God’s grace becomes central to solving addiction problems.
