Life Recovery Online

Pre-screening required / Mixed group.

In Life Recovery you’ll find friends to connect with, strength to help you face some of your most difficult struggles, practical steps for real change, and a much, much deeper relationship with God. Life Recovery is a safe place for people to find healing and freedom from addictions not limited to drugs and alcohol. We can be, and are, addicted to any number of things in life: food, gambling, sex, pornography, shopping, over-dependence on people, love of “stuff,” feelings of depression, fear, or anxiety . . . the list goes on. Addictions are very simply the things, relationships, or coping strategies we turn to for relief from life’s pain and brokenness. And while pleasurable for a short time, they do not satisfy or save.

At each gathering, we sing, have a lesson, recite the Twelve Steps and Serenity Prayer, and divide into gender-specific small groups for discussion. Our group is a loving and committed group of friends who want to support you! Find out more information at:
