Hello Jeff and welcome!
You can call me Jeff and no, my name is not Steve lol!
I was just reading your profile and I like what your ministry stands for. Have you heard of Gabor Mate? He has imho an excellent book on addiction.
May the Lord bless the work of your hands that He would be glorified!
Hope your day is blessed as well. I'm in Mi and if Dr. Mate goes to Chicago or Ohio, I may just make the trip. He co-authored a parenting book as well which my wife and I tried to put in practice that I thought was excellent.Hi Steve... {grinz} Jeff a pleasure to meet you. Oh yes very big fan of his writings and insights. I sometimes curl a lip but the message in this ministry sometimes is just enough. Look forward to fellowship. Just getting back from the summer vacation so time in the seat to settle in is here I think. Have a blessed day
That's a trip well worth it I can only imagine. I really like the way he presents a theology that is applicable to today realm. Currently I am in leadership in a program Celebrate and Recovery. An awesome ministry to serve in. So many hearts turned to God from the depths of the worst a human could ever imagine. It is an amazing program. From time to time I run into doctrinal concerns but in the whole of it all its God driven , its under the lords reign , happy to be His humble servant. and see His Power truly at work.Hope your day is blessed as well.

Do you run a Naranon or any other group?
That's awesome, and I'm glad you can rise above your own doctirnal bias to see how God is moving in the lives of others. You seem like you'll fit right in here as we are trying to build a community of diverse believers all coming together to give God the glory that the world would know we can unite even in our differences.That's a trip well worth it I can only imagine.
