Christian Recovery Has Power

Christian Recovery Ushers in the Source of Power

Christian recovery is about power. In the midst of an addiction, we are powerless. We are a slave to the obsession to use drugs, alcohol and people to satisfy the compulsive drive within.  In the process, we create major losses and do things we wouldn’t normally do.

When the negative consequences of addiction begin to outweigh the benefits, it can be a divine opportunity for intervention. That’s because victory is found in defeat when God is invited to do what human strength can’t perform. This is the power of true surrender and it’s where Christian recovery begins.

Why Christian Recovery?

Over the years we’ve watched the understanding of Christian recovery erode. Christians have sought other objectives and worldly solutions as the primary vehicle to bring lasting change. While some of those practices are helpful, they don’t give what a person needs the most – the power of God’s spirit living on the inside.

Christian recovery should not be a plea to moral living alone. Nor should it be a “shame fest” that will tell people what’s wrong in their lives.  True Christian recovery accepts a person where they are without judgement. It calls on the power of the Holy Spirit to overcome and realign through a process driven by love. It sees a person’s full potential and recognizes their identity and destiny. When this is invoked in the recovery process, something extraordinary happens. Brokenness meets the power of healing in a wild and extravagant dance called grace.  The most hopeless, the most depleted, the most morally defective person that walks through the door is able to have a new reality established. And that doesn’t happen because rules are given, or the “sins” are listed. It happens because encountering Jesus in broken places leads to life and change. Real change!

At New Life we understand the severity of addiction. We use clinical protocols  to assess the levels of addiction, and treatment programs to deal with rooted issues. But in all things, we trust in the power of God to lead a person out of bondage and into freedom in a way no  human process can perform. The outcomes speak for themselves. We’ve seen hundreds upon hundreds of people find hope, healing and new life over the past 15 years.
