Religion plays an important part in many people’s lives, and is often missing in treatment for addiction. The individual may need a reconnection to their spiritual life – or a whole new, life-changing focus.
These pages will include exercises, encouragement, quotes, videos, music, and links to assist you or a loved one on the journey. It’s about improving everyday and long-term attitudes, habits and the future. Remember these pages are all about LIVING A BETTER LIFE with God at the helm to lead you to the new and amazing destiny he has always planned for you. He longs for you to live your life to its full potential and will show you how, if you are willing.

if you’re kicked in the gut, he’ll help you catch your breath.
