Living Out the Message of Christ: The Journey Continues, Participant's Guide 8

Celebrate Recovery introduces The Journey Continues-four new participant's guides designed as a revolutionary, new second step study curriculum. This step study is taken after completing The Journey Begins (Participant Guides 1-4). In the seven lessons in Guide 8: Living Out the Message of Christ, you will experience Christ-centered and biblically based studies filled with brand new acrostics, deeper questions, and more helpful Bible verses. The content in Guide 8 will focus on a deeper study of the final two principles on the road to recovery:Reserve a daily time with God for self-examination. Bible reading and prayer in order to know God and his will for my life and to gain the power to follow his will.Yield myself to God to be used to bring this Good News to others, both by my example and by my words. "Happy are those who are persecuted because they do what God requires" (Matthew 5:10).By working through the lessons and exercises found in each of the four participant's guides of The Journey Continues, you will find a deeper sense of true peace and serenity, continue to restore and develop stronger relationships with others and with God, and find deeper freedom from life's hurts, hang-ups, and habits.About the AuthorJohn Baker is the founder of Celebrate Recovery®, a ministry started at Saddleback Church in 1991.
