“Amazing grace, how sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost, but now am found, was blind but now I see. Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, then grace my fears relieved. How precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed.”

-John Newton

 

 

As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins… it is by grace you have been saved, through faith, and this is not from yourselves; it is the gift of God…

Ephesians 2:1(a), 8-9 

 

 

“But after they had argued back and forth among themselves, they left with this final word from Paul: the Holy Spirit was right when he said to our ancestors through Isaiah the prophet:  ‘Go and say to my people, you will hear my words but you will not understand; you will see what I do but you will not perceive its meaning; for the hearts of these people are hardened, and their ears cannot hear, and they have closed their eyes, so their eyes cannot see, and their ears cannot hear, and their hearts cannot understand, and they cannot turn to me and let me heal them.”

Acts 28:25-27

 

“Hear me as I pray, O Lord.  Be merciful and answer me!  My heart has heard you say, “Come and talk with me.” And my heart responds, “Lord, I am coming.”

Psalm 27:7-8

What is Choose Recovery? We are a group of people who freely admit that we struggle with addictions, afflictions, and compulsive behaviors, who gather together to choose recovery through a growing trust in Jesus who guides us to freedom by following a simple recovery path. No matter where you have been or what you have done, you are welcome here. Together we can find new purpose and joy as we choose recovery.
