What is Celebrate Recovery?
Celebrate Recovery is a Christ-centered, 12-step recovery program designed for individuals dealing with hurt, pain, or various forms of addiction. It provides a supportive environment where people can connect with others and find freedom from the challenges that affect their lives.
Purpose of Celebrate Recovery
The goal of Celebrate Recovery is to discover God’s healing power through the Eight Recovery Principles found in the Beatitudes and the Twelve Steps. By engaging in the steps and drawing closer to Christ, participants begin to experience spiritual growth. This journey allows them to release the burdens of their past and overcome destructive behaviors in the present. In turn, this newfound freedom fosters peace, serenity, joy, and a deeper personal relationship with God, others, and Jesus Christ, our one true Higher Power.
Format of Celebrate Recovery
The format of Celebrate Recovery includes large group worship and reading the Word together. Following this, participants break into smaller groups for step study, where they engage in discussions and work through the steps together, fostering connection and mutual support as they navigate their recovery journey.
Issues Addressed in Celebrate Recovery
Many participants find healing from a range of challenges, such as anger, codependency, eating disorders, food-related issues, love and relationship addiction, various forms of abuse (physical, sexual, and emotional), drug and alcohol addiction, sexual addiction, gambling addiction, childhood trauma, grief, and mental health struggles. Celebrate Recovery serves as a supportive space for healing and hope.

“CR helped me see that freedom from sin starts with God’s truth in my own life. I grew up in a Christian home where we went to church 3 times a week. A start to life I’m so thankful for but because of hurt from family and damaging abuse, my views were skewed. I knew all the things I wasn’t supposed to do but not how to keep from doing them. I struggle with codependent relationships so I was always looking for people to satisfy the need that only God can satisfy. My thought life was a mess. I would obsess over what people were thinking about me and anxiety was a constant companion.
As a result, I looked to distractions to comfort me. Living my life through fantasy. I was reading books, watching movies, and that then turned to pornography and lust. I understand the need to “treat yourself” for self-care but with these “treats” I was attempting to treat pain and suffering on my terms and that is idolatry.
After years of being unable to get rid of sin on my own, I found Celebrate Recovery. Through CR I learned the importance of looking to my Higher Power Jesus Christ as the way to real lasting peace. He is all the comfort I need. He freely offers this peace but when I’ve been in a pattern of looking to something else it takes real effort to seek and abide in it. When I stand in His truth I have a peaceful mind that doesn’t obsess about others. When I give my life over to His care and control I am free from my need to self-medicate and numb. My hurt is laid at the cross and I’m able to live, not perfectly, but freely in His power over sin.” – Rachael
