ABOUT CELEBRATE RECOVERY (CR)

Celebrate Recovery is a safe place to address your hurts, habits and hang-ups in the context of a Biblically based 12-step program. So what exactly is a hurt, habit, or hang up?

Well, I'm glad you ask. A hurt, habit or hang-up can be anything that keeps you from realizing your full potential as a person. Hurts, habits and hang-ups can knock you off of God’s plan and throw you into a worldly detour headed toward destruction and despair.

HURTS
A “HURT” could be classified as any life experience that may have damaged your heart. Some offense against you that crippled your ability to deal with the world in a healthy way. Something that may have twisted your view of yourself, God or others. Some common hurts include:

ABANDONMENT
ABORTION
ABUSED AS A CHILD, OR BY A SPOUSE, EMPLOYER, OR THE CHURCH
ADOPTION
BETRAYAL
DYSFUNCTIONAL FAMILY (DIVORCE, ALCOHOLISM, DRUG ABUSE, RAGE, ETC.)
NEGLECT
RAPE
REJECTION

HABITS
“HABITS” tend to be unhealthy patterns that often start as a perceived “remedy” for some problem in your life, but end up turning into a chronic bad behavior or addiction. HABITS are the repeat, default scripts you run to when the going gets tough. They are your grooved plays that continually lead to trouble in your life. Some common habits are:

ABUSIVE BEHAVIOR
ALCOHOL
BITTERNESS
CHEATING, AFFAIRS, UNMARRIED SEX
CRITICAL SPIRIT
DRUGS
EATING DISORDERS
GAMBLING
GOSSIP
ISOLATION
LYING
SELF-MUTILATION
SEX ADDICTIONS
SPENDING PROBLEMS
STEALING
UNFORGIVENESS
WASTEFUL PURSUITS
WORKAHOLISM

HANG-UPS
And lastly, “HANG-UPS” are those road blocks that keep you from progressing further in God’s plan for your life. They are often shaped by some bent thinking you may have received as a child, or some unhealthy attitude you may have adopted as a means of coping with life’s challenges. Here are some common hang-ups we work out in our 12-step Celebrate Recovery process at Long Hollow Baptist Church: dress with boho patterns or florals for wedding
