Romans 15:13 is a powerful verse that speaks to the hope and joy that comes from having faith in God: "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit."
The month of September is National Recovery Month. There is hope in Jesus Christ and freedom from addiction is possible!

I love it when God interrupts my thoughts and remind me that the battle is not mine, but His. It's easy to get caught up in our own worries and struggles, but when we remember that God is in control, it can bring a sense of peace and reassurance. In the midst of chaos and uncertainty, He is the one constant we can rely on.

Another life restored and family renewed! Praising God for this testimony! ❤️
I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, the hopper, the destroyer, and the cutter, my great army, which I sent among you. You shall eat in plenty and be satisfied, and praise the name of the Lord your God, who has dealt wondrously with you. And my people shall never again be put to shame. Joel 2:25-26

When the path seems unclear, trust in the Lord to guide you. This wisdom from Proverbs 3:5-6 is at the heart of our approach at Adult & Teen Challenge. Let faith be your compass on your journey to recovery.

True worship requires us to surrender ourselves completely to God, even if it means going through difficult times. It means trusting in His plan for our lives, even when things don't go according to our own plans.

Our founder David Wilkerson once said, "God is looking for people through whom He can do the impossible. What a pity we plan only the things we can do by ourselves." This vision of faith continues to drive our mission. Ephesians 3:20: "Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us."

Read Rachel's testimony how she found hope in Jesus Christ!
Rachel's Testimony
Growing up in Tennessee, my brother and I were given a happy life. Our family owned a company, and we attended private school up until 6th grade, at which point, we switched to public school. The change really felt nerve wracking for me. I found myself just wanting to fit in and make friends. I began rebelling at 14. I started drinking and sneaking out to parties. By the age of 19, I was completely out of control. I was in and out of night clubs, bars, and drug houses with no plans of stopping. Before I knew it, my entire 20's flashed by and it all felt like a blur. I was seeking superficial treatments for deeper spiritual wounds. The first time I realized I had a serious problem was at 22, where I began seeking help with addiction from secular based resources. Over the next 10 years, I would end up in and out of numerous hospitals, treatment centers, and even a few mental health wards. Many miraculous things happened to me throughout that season which kept me alive. I was arrested on federal charges for being involved in a drug ring. I was facing 10 years in prison. I spent the next 2 years incarcerated searching for answers, which I found in the bible. I was released in September of 2020, and I was ready to start my life again the right way. I started making small compromises one by one, the biggest being alcohol. Two years flew by, and I was a full-blown alcoholic, blowing through money and stuck in a toxic relationship. I had been down this road before, and I knew I needed help. I wasn’t in the will of God, and I had done things in my own strength. That’s when I called Teen Challenge. The day I arrived here, I knew I had stepped back into the will of my Father. Why? Because I felt peace again for the first time in years. Here, I’m not some patient in a hospital, not some client at a rehab, or some inmate at a prison. I am a student being trained up in the word of God. After chasing all these different forms of meaningless pursuits this world has to offer, I’ve finally come to the same conclusion that Solomon did at the end of his life in Ecclesiastes 12:13.
