Where messiness meets mercy, grace, and truth.

“Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, ‘This is the way; walk in it.’”

—Isaiah 30:21

Because the gospel isn’t Just “come as you are,” It’s also “stay as you become.”

Our Goal Is Simple: Help Through Gospel-centered recovery

We provide frontline, Christ-centered recovery resources for people stuck in addictions, compulsive behaviors, and disordered loves of all kinds and at all levels—especially those who lack access to Gospel-centered recovery or are too trapped in shame to seek it. We believe true recovery must go deeper than behavior modification.

Gospel-centered recovery introduces people to the ultimate healer, Jesus Christ, and addresses the underlying brokenness, shame, sin, suffering, and disordered loves that fuel destructive patterns.

As spiritual first responders, we offer spiritual triage and connect people to deeper discipleship, biblical community, helpful and appropriate programs, and lasting transformation in Christ.

Aim for Jesus, get sobriety thrown in.

The secular approach…

  • Addresses addiction late, after consequences become severe.

  • Focuses primarily on behavior change and symptom management.

  • Centered around quantity and frequency.

  • Treats sobriety as the ultimate goal.

  • Avoids deeper questions of sin, brokenness, worship, identity, and eternity.

  • Can leave people sober but still isolated, restless, and miserable.

The Gospel-centered approach…

  • Uncovers and identifies the problem earlier and at the level of the heart.

  • Sees addiction holistically, including as a worship disorder rooted in misordered loves.

  • Sees sobriety not as the goal, but as a fruit of deeper transformation.

  • Names sin honestly while offering grace, forgiveness, and restoration.

  • Aims not just for abstinence, but for lasting freedom and flourishing—both now and in eternity.

“I love how you prioritize abiding with Jesus over ‘getting sober.’ I have been longing for a Christian community that I could resonate with. You really helped.”

THE MISSION

To help individuals, especially within the church, find freedom from addictions of all sorts and at all levels through the sanctifying truth of the gospel, the power of Christian community, and lifelong discipleship rooted in Jesus Christ.

THE VISION

We envision a gospel-centered recovery movement where messy stories are met with grace and mercy, idols and addictions of all kinds are exposed by truth, lives and relationships are restored and transformed, and where people learn to walk in the fullness of life available only in Jesus Christ.

Our Six pillars

We focus our attention on six strategic pillars: media, resources, education, community, retreats, and equipping/empowering.

We recover out loud in Christ so that others don’t die quietly in their addictions without him.

“Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.”

2 Corinthians 12:8-9

“I just want to say thank you. I'm a pastor’s kid and have been a believer most of my life. I didn't start drinking until I was in my 30s. It took over almost immediately. There was SOOOO much shame around it, which kept me stuck in the cycle.”
