Celebrate Recovery is a biblical and balanced program to help people overcome their hurts, habits and hang-ups. Based on the actual words of Jesus rather than psychological theory, our recovery program is unique, and more effective in helping people change than anything else out there. Over the years the Holy Spirit has used this program to transform literally hundreds of lives at Allison Park Church and help people grow toward full Christlike maturity.
Celebrate Recovery is based on God’s Word, is forward-looking, emphasizes personal responsibility and spiritual commitment to Jesus Christ. CR addresses all types of habits, hurts and hang-ups and utilizes the biblical truth that we need each other in order to grow spiritually and emotionally.

CELEBRATE RECOVERY’S EIGHT RECOVERY PRINCIPLES
The Road to Recovery Based on the Beatitudes (R-E-C-O-V-E-R-Y)
R - Realize I’m not God; I admit that I'm powerless to control my tendency to do the wrong thing & that my life is unmanageable. (Step 1) “Happy are those who know that they are spiritually poor.”
E - Earnestly believe that God exists, that I matter to Him and that He has the power to help me recover. (Step 2) “Happy are those how mourn, for they shall be comforted.”
C - Consciously choose to commit all my life and will to Christ’s care and control. (Step 3)
“Happy are the meek.”
O - Openly examine and confess my faults to myself, to God, and to someone I trust. (Steps 4 and 5) “Happy are the pure in heart.”
V - Voluntarily submit to any and all changes God wants to make in my life and humbly ask Him to remove my character defects. (Steps 6 and 7) “Happy are those whose greatest desire is to do what God requires”
E - Evaluate all my relationships. Offer forgiveness to those who have hurt me and make amends for harm I’ve done to others when possible, except when to do so would harm them or others. (Steps 8 and 9) “Happy are the merciful.” “Happy are the peacemakers”
R - Reserve a 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. (Steps 10 and 11)
Y - Yield myself to God to be used to bring this Good News to others, both by my example and my words. (Step 12) “Happy are those who are persecuted because they do what God requires.”
