Building a Recovery Program that Thrives
People seeking freedom from the pains, pleasures, and processes that are negatively controlling their lives in the form of addictions, compulsions, and obsessions need stability. They need something they can count on when that craving hits, when they are thinking about completing that negative process they are contemplating in their mind, or when the darkness of a spiritual stronghold in their life begins to steal their hope.
Providing the safe, structured platform to deliver the community and curriculum that person needs can be one of the most fulfilling endeavors you will ever undertake, but with it comes responsibility. Your future coordinators and facilitators must understand the consistency and transparency that a recovery ministry needs to thrive, and be willing to invest their time in a few months of introspective recovery training before "going live".
