Is Celebrate Recovery Right for Me?

Who is CR for anyway? The common perception is that CR is for those who have addictions to things like, pornography, drugs, alcohol, sex, gambling, etc. However, while that is true, it is only partly true. CR is for anyone with a hurt, habit, or hang up. That my friends is just about all of us.

I've never met a person yet that made it into adulthood without suffering significant wounds to their soul - and I'm certainly not the exception. Debbie and I have both benefited from counseling tremendously.

How can you know if you need the help of CR? I would say if you have an area in your life where you consistently do what you know is not right and do not do what is right you would benefit from the help of CR. I'm talking about things as seemingly as insignificant as: controlling your spending (living on and within your budget), getting out of debt, overcoming a critical spirit, exercising self-control over your words, time usage, and diet. All of these and more are indications Celebrate Recovery may be right for you.
