This Thursday is Lesson # 16 – AMENDS
We started doing repair work on the personal side of our lives earlier in our recovery. We did this by admitting our powerlessness, turning our lives and wills over to God’s care, doing our moral inventory, sharing sins/wrongs with another, and admitting shortcomings and asking God to remove them. But now we begin to do some repair work on the relational side of our lives. Making your amends is the beginning of the end of your isolation from God and others. Join us Thursday night as we take this step toward repairing the relationships in our lives that are so very valuable and necessary.
“In Humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of your to the interests of the others.” Philippians 2:3-4
Recovery Reminder
Principle 6: Evaluate all my relationships. Offer forgiveness to those who have hurt me and make amends for harm I’ve done to others, except when to do so would harm them or others. “Happy are the merciful.” Matthew 5:7 “Happy are the peacemakers.” Matthew 5:9
Step 8: We made a list of all persons we had harmed and became willing to make amends to them all. “Do to others as you would have them do to you.” Luke 6:31
Thursday Night’s Dinner: Cindy is cooking; Piccadillo, jasmine rice, black beans, garden salad, & bread.

CR One Day Seminar in Orlando
WHY SHOULD I ATTEND A NATIONAL ONE DAY TRAINING?
In ministry we have the incredible blessing to serve others in our Church and community. These people may be struggling with big struggles of hurt, fear, anger, anxiety, control issues, family chaos, addictions and more.
In ministry we can get tired, discouraged, off track or maybe even find ourselves losing our passion for ministry as a whole. We have an incredible tool in CR to help you become equipped to help those in your Church body in an effective way. Even better, we have National One Day Training’s to help train and equip you and your team on how to lead this incredible ministry of Celebrate Recovery.
Thousands of people across the globe who have attended our National One Day Training’s have expressed a great appreciation for the training’s. Why? Because they give us a place to hit the pause button in our “to-do” list and join others in sharpening our own saw.
Attending the One Day training’s reminds us that we are not alone and that we have a partner in ministry. Learning how to start and run a CR ministry in your church while gaining an army of family to walk alongside us in the journey is truly priceless. The Bible says in Ecclesiastes, “Two are better than one and a three-fold cord is not easily broken.” Our human nature is to keep our head down and try to muddle our way through life’s ministry problems.
Leave encouraged, equipped, trained and confident to grow your ministry strong.
