Celebrate Recovery is a Christ centered 12 step program, based on the 8 principles from the Beatitudes. The program was developed by John Baker and Rick Warren from Saddleback Church, and is designed to help people recover from life's hurts, habits and hang-ups. Through this program, we develop a deeper, more intimate relationship with our one true higher power, Jesus Christ and with others. It is built around small group interaction and the fellowship of a caring community. It is a 'large umbrella' program under which a limitless number of issues can be dealt with. By working through the steps of this program, a freedom comes from our addictive, compulsive and dysfunctional behaviors, which allows us to grow spiritually, and learn to live a peaceful, joyful and more meaningful life.
