Addicted to God and Recovery (eBook)

What if I told you all of the concepts of the 12 steps were in one chapter in the Bible? What if I told you the blessings in consequences of overcoming sinful behaviors were also listed in that chapter? What if I told you God provides a way out? Could we agree that all sinful behaviors can become addictions, idols, or barriers to our relationship with God?Unhealthy behaviors separate us from God. We don t like to look at them or talk about them. Our habits continue to overpower us in our lives and negatively impact others. We try to stop them daily; however, we keep losing control. We ask God for help, but He doesn t seem to respond, or we don t like the answers we receive. We refuse help and continue to affect those around us while our shame grows. If you have experienced these problems in any area, you are normal. If you ve tried to control them with various solutions but have been unsuccessful, you are human. If you ask God for help, but it seems like you don t receive an answer, you may be blinded to God s solutions. If you have tried what God said, but it didn t work, you may have stopped before the miracle happened. This book will study 2nd Peter and align your recovery with evidence supported by the Bible. It will help you see the patterns, stop the behaviors you CAN stop, get help for the behaviors you CAN T stop, and use the resources God has provided through Scriptures, 12-step recovery, and Christian living.
