What You Can Do

to Further Christian Recovery from Alcoholism & Addiction

 

·         If you see something, say something. If you see or hear of someone who desperately needs help for himself or for another, and the afflicted person wants God’s help, put them in touch with one of the “Participants” or “Christian Recovery Resource Centers” on this list.

 

·         If you know something, share it with others. Tens of thousands of alcoholics, addicts, others with life-controlling problems, and those impacted by such problems haven’t a clue as to the role that God, His Son Jesus Christ, and the Bible played in early A.A.’s astonishing successes or in the Christian Recovery Movement more broadly, or as to the roll they can play today for those willing to seek God and ask for help. Tell them what’s available or point to someone on this list who can do so.

 

·         If you hear someone say that Christians should not seek help in A.A., N.A., or other 12-Step programs, tell them to contact “Participants” and/or “Christian Recovery Resource Centers” listed on the International Christian Recovery Coalition Web site and see how many Christians today are doing what early AAs did—turning from seemingly-hopeless, revolving-door disasters to the power, love, forgiveness, guidance, and healing that God has been providing to AAs and other afflicted and affected people for decades.

 

·         If you are a Christian leader or worker in the recovery arena, get in touch with one of these resources and realize how much comradeship, friendship, and Christian fellowship is available to you across the globe right now.

 

·         If you would like to serve, love, and glorify God, as well as to serve and love others, contact us to list yourself--at no cost whatever--as a “Participant” in the International Christian Recovery Coalition. And then YOU can be one of those contacted by those desperately in need of God’s help and receptive to the fact that we Christians in the recovery arena are not alone!
