We Welcome YOU To Celebrate Recovery
 
IT’S TESTIMONY NIGHT!!!
 
We invite you to join us tonight to hear a testimony being shared by someone who came to Celebrate Recovery struggling with anger, resentment, abandonment, relationship addiction, sexual sin and lust. 
We invite you to come hear her share what Christ has done for her and how He slowly transformed her.  
 
“The faithful love of the Lord never ends! His mercies never cease. Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin afresh each morning.”
(Lamentations 3:22-23)
 
 
Principle 8.  Yield myself to God to be used to bring this Good News to others, both by my example and by my words.  
 
“Blessed are those who are persecuted because they do what God requires.” (Matthew 5:10) 
 
 
Step 12.  Having had a spiritual experience as the result of these steps, we try to carry this message to others and practice these principles in all our affairs. 
 
 “Brothers, if someone is caught in a sin, you who are spiritual should restore him gently.  
But watch yourself or you also may be tempted.”

DENIAL

CELEBRATE RECOVERY
It’s our 4th Anniversary!
We invite you to come celebrate with us.  
We are serving cake after small groups.
 
Denial Lesson  #1
 
 
Large  group  starts at 7 pm (age  requirement 15 years and older)
Small  groups start at 8 pm (age requirements 18 years and older)
 
 
 
Principle 1: Realize I’m not God.  I admit that I am powerless to control my tendency to do the wrong thing and that my life is unmanageable.
 
“Blessed are those who know they are spiritually poor”.
(Matthew 5:3)
 
 
Step 1: We admitted we were powerless over our addictions and compulsive behaviors, that our lives had become unmanageable.
 
“I know that nothing good lives in me, that is in my sinful nature.  For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.” (Romans 7:18)
 
 
 
Before we can take the first step of our recovery, we must first face and admit our denial.
Disables our feelings
Energy lost
Negates growth
Isolates us from God
Alienates us from our relationships
Lengthens the pain
 
Focus Question:
 
In what areas of your life are you now beginning to face the truth and break the effects of DENIAL?
