Paul writes, "See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the basic principles of this world rather than on Christ" (Colossians 2:8). Yet that is exactly what is happening in our secular and sometimes christian "recovery" movement.
The tragic results of these hollow and deceptive philosophies is that hurting belevers are being led away from a firm confidence in Jesus and the Word oh God. Instead of finding healing for their wounded hearts, they are often led into deeper captivity to sin and consequently experience a life of spiritual proverty and sorrow.
I believe firmly that our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ has providedmeverything we need for a full and productive walk with God in the Scriptures. Trust me I have seen it work, and the Bible has claimed "His devine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him" ( 2 Peter 1:3)
Celebrate Recovery is about HOPE.
Hope for the restoration of broken relationships. Hope for the future. Hope for permanent healing. one of our goals through Celebrate Recovery is to introduce you to a savior who will change your life so that you will not have to experience a life of confusion and complications, but a life of joy and a peace of God that wll exceed your understanding as you follow His plan that he has laid out for you.
It is my prayer as the Leader of Celebrate Recovery that you will experience God's healing for your deepest wounds.

This is where the journey of healing begins. In Step Study, this is where you work. These groups are a little more informal than our Wednesday night large group meeting. We use Celebrate Recovery (CR) participant workbooks and the support of one another to accomplish our personal goals. These groups require a one year commitment. Step Study groups close once the 4th step is reached, meaning no one can join after that.

' Thank-You Rochelle"
I don't know if you even realize that you have become the pulse of Celebrate Recovery. I have taken a turn in life in which I strongly feel God has lead me in, and it has enabled me not to be in all the places where I believe I need to be. But, as I looked to God for direction He said in a whisper "I sent someone to be the wind beneath your wings" take the opportunity to go and do what I have commisioned you to do. Wow and immediatly a Peace came over me and I was able to breathe a sigh of relief.
If you have read this far you can see I used the word (I) quite a bit....I was trying to do things on my own and by myself, ohhh how so selfish of me...
Rochelle God is truly using You. The work and dedication you have shown to Celebrate Recovery is truly Amazing! You have given Celebrate Recovery tools to be able toMinister to others around the World!
If I have not told you "I appreciate you for who you are and what you are becoming through the Power of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ" You are a Blessing to The family of Celebrate Recovery and the entire body of Christ.
Thanks for standing for me when I could not

"Dont Give Up On God cause He Won't Give Up on You"
"Do you ever sometimes feel as though you are not making progress in your spiritual life"
When God starts a project in you, he completes it.
God will help you grow in Grace until he has completed his work in Your life
When You are discouraged, remember that God won't give up on You. He promised to finish the work he has begun. When you feel incomplete, unfinished, or distressed by your shortcomings, remember God's promise and provision. Don't let your present condition rob you of the Joy of knowing Christ or keep you from growing closer to Him
Phillipians 1:6 For I am confident of this very thing, that He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus

Feelings...."Can't Always Trust Them.......
“ Feelings”
We all have thoughts, feelings or emotions we should not have! The difference is that some people have learned to Stop these Feelings as soon as they Start, others allow these thoughts to stay in their minds and grow like cancer until They begin acting on them. Thoughts like lust, lack of self worth, depression, fear, worries, and doubt are planted in us by Satan, He knows where we are weak and vulnerable. Learn to Cast these thoughts out immediately, In Jesus Name and tell Satan to “GO TO HELL”, where he belongs, That's where he would like to send You!!
Gods Peace Be With You! Lanetta
