OUR PROGRAMS
Residential Recovery Program
The basic Residential Program lasts about six months and is comprehensive, Christ-centered and Bible-based.
For descriptive and evaluative purposes, our Program has the following categories, namely:
a. Spiritual - dependence on God.
b. Mental - renewal of the mind.
c. Emotional - healing of damaged emotions
d. Behavioral - tracking new and healthy behavior.
e. Vocational - positive work attitudes
f. Physical - restoration of physical well-being
The main thrust of our program is spirituality - Christian spirituality. We view addiction as the complex result of an individual's separation from God and the lack of a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ. The Bible is our most important resource material for recovery. As our main tool, we use a Twelve Step Program adopted from Alcoholics Anonymous but given an explicit Christian orientation.
Residents are treated with dignity and respect in an atmosphere of love and trust, which does not preclude discipline. But, like everything else that we do, discipline, when administered, is consistent with Scripture.
The basic residential program also has three phases: the Entry Phase ( duration: 1 month), Intensive Phase (duration: 3 months) and the Re-entry Phase (duration: 2 months). Movement through the phases is a function of a resident's commitment to his growth process and his participation in the program.
