I have narrowed down some direct benefits of the church based recovery program I have been involved with called Celebrate Recovery. While I have studied it's literature and even met it's founder, as all of mankind's programs there are faults, but a critique is for another post. You only have to go once and hear the testimony of a crack addict, prostitute, or alcoholic husaband and father who has been set free to understand.
1) Truth Saying.
• Breaking the system of denial.
• A foundation for real intimacy
• Feeling the pain of ours and other's choices.
2) Relationships
• Peer review
• Equality, Experience, and Empathy.
• Caring relationships where acceptance is not performance driven.
• Support.
3) New Thought.
• Discovery.
• The Wisdom of Crowds.
• It is your system that has failed not everyone else's.
• 12 Step Structure creates life application of spiritual values.
