What comes to mind when someone brings up 12-Step recovery?
Maybe you think of Alcoholics Anonymous?
Or perhaps group meetings?
Do you also wonder if 12-Step programs are only for those who don’t see Jesus as Savior and Lord of all?
Should followers of Christ consider participating, even if Jesus isn't the central focus?
There are certainly some common misconceptions about where the original twelve steps come from and how they are meant to be used.
Today, we’ll look at a few of the most prevalent misunderstandings surrounding this simple yet effective program for addiction recovery and discover if these twelve steps are a clear path to God.
We pray this blesses you,
Johnny and Emily

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
