Our 8 Steps for Healing and Wholeness
These steps are progressive and build on each other
1) We come to admit that we are powerless to restore
our faith in God, and we acknowledge our need for God’s help.
2) We come to believe that God exists, that we matter
to Him, and that He has the power to restore us to faith, spiritual clarity,
and wholeness.
3) We come to understand the freeing nature of the
gospel of grace through Jesus Christ.
4) In response to an understanding of God’s love and
grace, we make a conscious decision to surrender our will and our lives over to
His care.
5) As we come to see them, we admit our faults and
weaknesses to God, to ourselves, and to another person (or people) who we
trust. We trust God
and seek His
help for healing in these areas.
6) We evaluate our relationships, and offer
forgiveness to those who have hurt us.
We make amends for harm
we have done to others when possible, except
when doing so would harm them or others.
7) We seek through prayer and meditation to improve
our conscious contact with God, asking for understanding of His love and grace,
the knowledge of His will, and the power to carry that out.
8) Having experienced greater faith, spiritual clarity
and wholeness as a result of these steps, we carry this message to others, and
continue to practice these principles in our daily lives.
