CR - 01/12/18 - Shari L. Testimony Series: Choose Recovery VIDEO
Summary
Step One: We admitted we were powerless over our addictions and compulsive behaviors and that our lives had become unmanageable.
I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. - Romans 7:18
Small Group Questions:
(These questions are suggested discussion starters, not requirements)
Have you surrendered your life over to the care of God? Do you think this is a one time event or a daily practice?
Are there areas you think God might not be concerned with, or you can handle all by yourself? If, so, what are they?
Who invited you to celebrate Recovery? Have you invited anyone to come? Discuss this statement: Invitations save lives!
Describe how God got your attention in your most difficult days.
Speaker: Shari Lacey January 12, 2018 Shari Lacey Pastor, Fort Myers Shores Campus
