Join Us, IT’S TESTIMONY NIGHT!!!  ​ 
 
We invite you to join us tonight to hear a testimony being shared by a man who is a changed and changing person, battling and gaining victory over inadequacy, self-esteem, abandonment, and sexual addiction.   
 
“You were bought at a price; do not become slaves of human beings” (1 Corinthians 7:23) 

  

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.”

Celebrate Recovery @ Rafter J Cowboy Church – Wednesday, August 13, 2014

moral
Large group starts 7 pm (age requirement 15 years and older)
Small groups starts at 8 pm (age requirements 18 years and older)
 
Principle 4. Openly examine and confess my faults to myself, to God, and someone I trust.
“Blessed are the pure in heart.” (Matthew 5:8) 

Step 4. We made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.

“Let us examine our ways and test them, and let us return to the Lord.” (Lamentations 3:40) 

In this principle, you need to list (inventory) all the significant events – good and bad – in your life.  
You need to be as honest as you can be to allow God to show you your part and how that affected you and others.  

The acrostic for MORAL shows you how to begin.

Make time

Open

Rely

Analyze

List

Focus Question for Small Groups:

What are your fears about starting your inventory? 

What were the benefits of completing your personal inventory?

 
Principle 4 Prayer: 
Dear God, You know my past, all the good and the bad things that I’ve done.  
In this step, I ask that You give me the strength and the courage to list those things so that 
I can “come clean” and face them and the truth.  
Please help me reach out to others You have placed along my “road to recovery.”  
Thank you for providing them to help me keep balanced as I do my inventory. 
In the name of Jesus I pray, Amen.
