Many Christians are locked in a cycle of addiction, particularly in the areas of alcohol and drug abuse. Adapting his successful Steps to Freedom in Christ, Dr. Neil Anderson has provided an alternative model of recovery for substance and alcohol abusers--a model that has also freed hundreds of thousands struggling with other kinds of addictions. But the devil doesn't give up easily. So to further help recovering addicts still struggling with temptation, there is the One Day at a Time devotional. Here are inspirational readings that reinforce the Steps to Freedom and encourage those on the road to recovery. This product is for those who want to break free from a debilitating lifestyle of addiction, and for pastors and counselors to use with their clients.
“ I didn’t need to change in order to gain God’s love and acceptance. God loved me; therefore, I could change.” (source)
“It is not hypocritical to believe the truth about who we really are in Christ, even though we don’t feel like it at times. Hypocrisy does not mean living differently from what we feel, it means living differently from what we profess to believe.” (source)
“The mental essence of addiction is self-consciousness, and the answer to addiction is God-consciousness.” (source)
“It is every Christian’s responsibility to do whatever is necessary to maintain a right relationship with God. Your eternal destiny is not at stake, but you will not experience your victory in Christ if you fail to claim and maintain your position in Christ.” (source)
“God doesn’t help those who help themselves, but He does provide for those who admit they can’t do it themselves” (source)
