Recovery & Restoration

Groups for male adults and adolescents

Sixteen weekly groups providing discipleship which brings healing to those who have been abused as they work through emotions that affect their lives - such as anger, bitterness, guilt, shame, distrust, and responsibility.

The foundation of the groups is the Word of God.

"So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; it shall not return to Me empty, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it."
(Isaiah 55:11)

Groups teach participants how to build and walk in personal relationship with God.  It is this relationship which provides both healing for the wounds of the past and freedom from the deceptions of the enemy. 

  Groups help participants:
  • remove the sense of isolation felt by those who have been abused.  
  • realize their behaviors are "normal" for persons who have been sexually abuse, but that God has a better "normal" life for them, a normal life that doesn't revolve around or define itself by the sexual abuse.
  • recognize the devices satan used to lead them to accept the lies and the false beliefs on which they have based their lives.  This recognition will allow participants to break the silence and lay down the other coping mechanisms they always felt were necessary to their survival.  
  • understand how those lies were used to lead them to act out in ways that have brought pain to themselves and others.  Understanding this will free participants to resist temptations and stand strong against the leading of the lies.
  • look at pain
  • express emotions
  • further explore the truth about abuse
  • replace the lies abuse tells about:
    1. who God is
    2. who they are to God
    3. what that means to them
    4. learn the truth about love and sex and how God created them to bless the life of His children
