When people hear “step study,” they often think it’s just homework and hard questions.
But for us — and for our friend Will — it became something way deeper:
A safe place to tell the truth.
A space to sit with God and your story.
A process that changed everything.
In this episode, we talk with Will — who went through a full Celebrate Recovery step study with Jay — about what the experience was really like. No fluff. No spiritual sugar-coating. Just real recovery in motion.
In this episode:
• Why Will walked into CR in the first place
• What a step study actually looks like (from someone who’s done it)
• The fear, resistance, and freedom that surfaced along the way
• What shifted in his relationships, faith, and identity
• Why sitting in a circle of truth-tellers can change your life
