Recovery Alive's Mission
Recovery Alive is a church-based program that connects the broken to the POWER, PEOPLE AND PROCESS of the Christ-centered 12 steps.
​
The POWER of recovery: Our priority is to connect people to our one and only true Higher POWER, Jesus Christ.
​
The PEOPLE of recovery: We strive to help the broken connect to safe and supportive PEOPLE.
​
The PROCESS of recovery: We help broken people connect to the Christ-centered 12-step PROCESS of recovery.
We believe that in order to progress, we need a process, and safe people to walk along side of us for encouragement and accountability. However, the POWER of God and His Holy Spirit will always take priority in our ministry.
​
Here at Recovery Alive, we are committed to reaching the lost & dying through a Christ-centered recovery program. We are committed to breaking down barriers through providing easily accessible and affordable materials. We are committed to providing safe and supportive places for everyone to work through the 12 STEPS of recovery as they grow closer in relationship with God and work on restoring broken relationships with others.

In 2020, John and his team prioritized the need for accessible online recovery meetings, making the commitment to build a Christ-centered recovery program that had the ability to be 100% online AND in-person.
