Hope wishes, faith believes, but COURAGE makes it happen! 💪

When we combine all three, we don't just transform our own lives—we become instruments of change for others. When God gives you work to do, step out in courage and watch lives transform—including your own!

What will you have the courage to make happen today?

Step 6 isn't just a milestone — it's the moment everything shifts. 🙏

It's where you stop carrying what was never yours to carry, and let Jesus do what only He can do.

As Paul wrote in Philippians 3:12, ‘Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.’

Ready to let go of your past and step into your breakthrough?

Join us tonight starting at 6 PM for a free dinner, worship, a powerful sermon and focused recovery groups! See you at New Community Church!

Step 6: breaking free from the patterns that have held you back.

Jesus is the way, the truth and the life. Walk with Him — not around.

His love, grace, and mercy are real, and He's already waiting.

He knows you and wants to heal you. Are you ready for the 8 day challenge?

Step 6 asks a simple but powerful question:

"Are we entirely ready to have God remove our defects of character?"

Recovery is about more than putting down a substance — it's about letting go of the attitudes and behaviors that keep us stuck. Pride, anger, resentment, fear, and selfishness can continue to hold us back if we're unwilling to address them.

Step 6 isn't about perfection. It's about willingness. It's about becoming ready for God to do the work in us that we cannot do on our own.

Real growth begins when we stop holding on to old patterns and become open to change.

Every time we pray and bring everything to the Lord - the heavy things, the light things, even the embarrassing things. We’re laying them down at His feet. And Jesus is saying, “Let me take it all.” No take backs.

In the Book of John and specifically John 10:14–15, Jesus reminds us that those who are His are held securely in His hand. Once we are His sheep, we are not lost. He doesn’t let go.

That’s the kind of love that holds you, carries you, and never gives up on you.
We invite YOU to join us in recovery starting at 6 PM with a free dinner!

From overdose to making a difference — Coach Mike’s story shows how God can transform our deepest pain into our greatest purpose. 💪

As we walk His path of recovery, we’re reminded to “walk slow, don’t race.” It’s not about how fast we get there, but about steady steps forward—one day at a time. Along the way, we don’t just heal ourselves, we become healers for others, with God leading us toward something greater. 🌟
