What is a Jesus-centered 12-step recovery program?

A Jesus-centered 12-step recovery program integrates traditional 12-step principles with biblical teachings and Christian discipleship. At Serenity Collective, we believe the 12 steps are rooted in the life of Jesus and New Testament teachings. Our program helps participants understand God as revealed in Jesus Christ, rather than a self-defined 'higher power,' creating a more powerful foundation for healing and transformation in the community.

Serenity Collective offers Jesus-centered recovery groups. Our faith-based 12-step program provides inclusive Christian recovery meetings. Contact us at 619-300-8337 or info@serenitycollective.org to find recovery groups near you.

What makes Christian recovery different from secular programs?

Christian recovery combines evidence-based addiction treatment with faith-based healing principles rooted in Jesus Christ. Our program recognizes that true healing involves mind, body, and spirit. We provide community support, biblical counseling, worship, prayer, and discipleship alongside traditional recovery methods, addressing not just the addiction but the spiritual emptiness that often underlies addictive behaviors.

What happens in Serenity Groups meetings?

Serenity Groups meet for 13 sessions total. The first session is open to anyone considering joining. The following 12 sessions work through each of the 12 steps with group teaching, small group exercises, discussion, and homework tasks. Each session includes community building, biblical teaching, step work, prayer, and practical application to build supportive connections and develop new life habits rooted in faith.

Is Christian addiction recovery effective?

Faith-based recovery programs have shown significant effectiveness, especially for individuals who value spiritual connection. Studies indicate that people in faith-based recovery often experience improved outcomes due to the additional support of spiritual community, meaning-making, and moral framework that faith provides. Our Jesus-centered approach addresses the whole person - spiritual, emotional, and physical needs.

No matter your past, pain, or current situation, our path of healing is available to you.
