Recovery 

PERFECTS

A trauma-informed, cognitive behavioral approach to healing in a safe and nonjudgmental environment. Recovery PERFECTS encourages you to follow Good Orderly Direction while exploring how scripture teaches you to love yourselves and each other unconditionally, while still setting boundaries to stay safe and work toward your rich and meaningful life.

You do not have to have faith in a deity to be welcome here.  All you have to do is follow the principles of Good Orderly Direction: Prudence, Endurance, Respect for yourself and others, Forgiveness of yourself and others, Earnestness in all that you do and say, Compassion for yourself and others, Truthfulness with yourself and others, and Selflessness.

Recovery PERFECTS is dedicated to fostering holistic well-being by embracing the principles of Good Orderly Direction (G.O.D) and creating a space where seekers can find solace, support, and spiritual growth on their unique journeys to healing and recovery.

 

Bible Studies

Welcome To

Recovery PERFECTS

We are a new type of fellowship that encourages you to live your life and judge your own actions based on the principles of Good Orderly Direction: Prudence (knowledge and patience), Earnestness (doing what you say you will to the best of your ability); Respect for yourself and others; Forgiveness of yourself and others; Endurance of trials and challenges by seeking support in God and the fellowship; Compassion for yourself and others; Truthfulness with yourself and others and Selflessness (giving credit where credit is due and avoiding the pride trap).

Everyone who is part of the fellowship at Recovery PERFECTS is expected to follow the principles of Good Orderly Direction toward themselves and others.  However, most of us have never experienced this type of love and acceptance and may not have fully developed these skills.  That is okay!  All we expect is that you earnestly try. 

You are not your behaviors.  You are loveable, even if some of your behaviors are not.  Through participation in the fellowship, you will learn new skills, strengthen your supports and begin using your energy to move toward a rich and meaningful life of abundance.

Upcoming Lessons
