Healing the Scars of Addiction

Healing the Scars of Addiction
Reclaiming Your Life and Moving Into a Healthy Future
(Revell, 2018)

WHO: Gregory Jantz, founder of The Center • A Place of Hope.

HE SAYS: “You are a valuable person and there is a plan and purpose for your life.”

THE BIG IDEA: People fight addictions all the time—to drugs, alcohol, food, shopping, technology and more. Attempting to live in recovery—or to understand the mind of an addict—requires special help. This book offers a holistic approach to healing for both the addict and their friends and families.

THE PROGRESSION:
Structured as answers to questions, the 12 chapters in this book cover a range of topics, from what an addict is and why addictions happen to who an addict can be without the addiction and how to take back control.

“This book is written to provide hard-won answers gained from more than 30 years of working with courageous, addicted people.”

How Does Church Planting Benefit the Sending Church?

Can giving away your best people be a good thing?

How Does Understanding God’s Happiness Change Lives?

As much as I believe in the holiness of God, I also believe in emphasizing God’s happiness as a legitimate and effective way to share the gospel with unbelievers or to help Christians regain a foothold in their faith.

You Can’t (and Shouldn’t) Please Everyone

Learning to balance the natural tension of loving and caring for people, but not allowing someone to leverage their personal agenda or hijack the vision of your church is part of the leader’s responsibility.
