Responding 12 Step Recovery
$23.99
A One-Year Commitment for Life
Responding Recovery is a Jesus-centered 12-step program. You are about to embark on a journey that will begin to unfold in your life on a moment-by-moment basis. As you begin on your commitment to the program, you will find your Higher Power, Jesus Christ, to be more than a concept, more than a belief, and more than just one of many ways to recovery. You will begin to see that He is your only hope for eternal life, as well as for recovery from the chains of life that seem to bind you at this time. Alcoholics Anonymous: The Big Book is an avenue God can use to begin to reveal His plan, purpose, and destiny in your life. However, as you continue in your search for truth, the big, big, book, the Bible, will reveal the way to have a relationship with God that brings eternal life and life more abundantly. Your journey will unveil God, the author of the Bible, and His desire to live in you through a relationship with Jesus. It is one thing to be living above dysfunctional behaviors, but it is yet another to be free from the cause of what makes you do what you do. You will also find that while being clean and sober or free from dysfunctional behaviors is important, when you stand before God in the next life, Jesus will be your only entrance into heaven, if He lives in you by His Spirit.
Please keep in mind that this process of recovery will require commitment on your part for the long haul. As you know, you did not get to where you currently are overnight. The process of recovery can have immediate results, but often recovery will unfold on a day-by-day basis. However, the good news is the many, many promises of God’s Word (the Bible) that never fail.
For example, as you commit your ways to a relationship with Him and His helping power, He promises to keep your commitment for you. The Bible says, “I know in whom I believe and am persuaded that He is able to keep that which I commit until that Day” (2 Tim. 1:12). When this verse speaks of “that day,” it is referring to the second coming of Christ. In other words, your commitment will be held by God until the end of this life on earth.
Responding Recovery has a focus on the life of Jesus. The Word of God reveals how the living Word (Jesus) can live in us, bringing about wholeness and delivering from addictions, damaged emotions, and ultimately the tyrannical hold of sin’s grasp.
Responding Recovery uses each of the 12 steps of Alcoholics Anonymous as a “theme” but then
