CR is a biblical program based on 8 principles that Jesus Christ taught in His message from the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5). There are only two things needed for someone to start recovery: a desire to stop living in the past and a desire to start living in the truth. In CR, our focus is on spiritual progress as opposed to perfection, and as we work through the Christ-based 12 steps, we become willing to accept God's grace and forgiveness in solving our life problems. We learn that our identities are not based in our past behaviors. We are believers in Christ who struggle with past hurts, habits and hang-ups. We have come to the realization that we cannot keep what we have unless we give it away; therefore, the ultimate goal of recovery is to produce purpose-driven disciples who take the message of recovery in Christ to those who still suffer. Lessons are taught by ministry leaders and others, including guest speakers.
