August Challenge!

🌿 AUGUST is a Fresh Start. 🌿

A new month is a reminder that God's mercies are new every morning and His grace is sufficient for every step of our recovery journey.

Whether you're just beginning, returning after being away, or continuing to walk faithfully, August is another opportunity to grow closer to Christ and experience the freedom He offers.

Here's our August Challenge:

A – Accept God's grace one day at a time.
U – Understand you were never meant to recover alone.
G – Grow through honesty, not perfection.
U – Use your story to encourage someone else.
S – Surrender what you cannot control.
T – Trust Jesus with every step of your recovery.

Recovery isn't about having a perfect past—it's about taking the next faithful step with Jesus today.

📖 "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!"
— 2 Corinthians 5:17 (NIV)

🙏 Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of a new month and a fresh start. Help us to walk in honesty, surrender our fears, trust You completely, and extend Your grace to others. Strengthen us to take the next right step each day, knowing You are with us through every victory and every struggle. Continue transforming our hearts and drawing us closer to You. In Jesus' name, Amen.

➕🙌🏽❤️ If you're looking for hope and healing, we invite you to join a Celebrate Recovery meeting near you.

We had an amazing time at the Celebrate Recovery Summit and we will be back Thursday night to tell everyone about it ! Dinner at 5:30 and large group at 6:30 . Come and join us!

Please join our leaders in prayer as we travel today to TN for the Celebrate Recovery Summit. We will spend the next 3 days learning, growing and in fellowship with our forever family across the world. I can't wait to see what God has planned!

🙏 Our Forever Family is coming together this week! 🙌❤️

In just a few days, thousands and thousands of people from around the world will gather in Hendersonville, Tennessee, to celebrate 35 Years of Freedom at the Celebrate Recovery Summit.

Whether you're traveling across the country or just across town, we are praying for every person making the journey. May God grant you safe travels, renewed strength, meaningful connections, and life-changing encounters with Him.

Before the first session begins... Before the worship starts... Before the hugs and reunions...

We want to pause and give thanks to our Higher Power, Jesus Christ. ✝️

Thank You, Jesus, for making Celebrate Recovery possible. Thank You for leading the way. Thank You for changing lives, restoring families, breaking chains, and reminding us that hope is always available through You.

This week isn't about an event. It's about celebrating what God has been doing for the last 35 years and believing He's not finished yet.

💬 One question for our Forever Family...

Whether you're attending Summit or cheering us on from home...

What does Celebrate Recovery mean to you?

Share your story in the comments. Your words may encourage someone who is wondering if they should take their very first step toward recovery.

We can't wait to see many of you this week!
