Our task is to train the trainers so that folks and recovery can learn and apply the role played by God, His Son Jesus Christ, and the Bible in the recovery movement, and can play today for those who want, need, and seek the power of God for their healing of the problems of alcoholism, addiction, and life controlling problems.

Our major resources now are the new Introductory Foundations for Christian Recovery class, The Dick B.

We believe as to Alcoholics Anonymous: (1) It should not be knocked ore bashed. (2) It should be truthfully, accurately, and fully reported. (3) It should then be supported by those who are A.A. friendly, Bible friendly, and history friendly with the assurance given by Dr. Bob on the last page of his personal story : "Your Heavenly Father will never let you down!"
