You may have been raised with a strong Christian faith but somewhere along the way, the path became unclear. Perhaps in the pain and frustration of daily life, drugs and alcohol replaced God and now you feel lost. God has not abandoned you. Our program material didn’t find its way into your hands by accident. You’ve been led to us so we can help guide you back onto the right path.
All too often in our struggles with addiction we are tempted to punish ourselves for lack of morality, lack of character, lack of will. We feel the horrible weight of failing in the eyes of God and those we love when the truth is, alcoholism and drug addiction is defined as a disease by the American Medical Association (AMA) in that it is chronic, debilitating and fatal if left untreated. Alcohol and drug addiction is merely symptomatic of underlying issues, whether those involve chemical imbalance or emotional disturbances such as painful memories, trauma or abuse. Our goal is to help you address those disturbances in a safe environment that is supportive of your faith. Belief in a Higher Power is the basis of the 12-step model and our Christian counselors will work with you to incorporate your personal relationship with Jesus Christ into the existing program structure. Celebrate Recovery uses Christian-based principles in a 12-step format to help recovering Christians learn how to restore their reliance on God instead of drugs and alcohol, this process of drug rehab was known as christian track.
Scripture instructs, “Do not turn back from the plow.” When you make the decision to turn away from drugs and alcohol and rededicate your life to Jesus Christ, the past is already forgiven. As you begin to walk in faith through the 12-steps, forgiveness is a natural by-product. Forgiveness of yourself and others is a vital component of overcoming the past and rebuilding a new life in Christ. At SouthCoast Recovery, we’ll help guide you on every part of your journey to recovery until that beautiful day when you finally realize you were never alone. God has been with you every step of the way.
