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
