Hurts
“Hurts” can be classified as any life experience that may have damaged your heart, some offense against you that crippled your ability to deal with the world in a healthy way. Something that may have twisted your view of yourself, God, or others. Some common hurts include:
- Abandonment
- Abortion
- Abused as a child, or by a spouse, employer, or the church
- Adoption
- Betrayal
- Dysfunctional family (divorce, alcoholism, drug abuse, rage, etc.)
- Neglect
- Rape
- Rejection
- Cheating, affairs
- Unforgiveness
Habits
“Habits” tend to be unhealthy patterns that often start as a perceived “remedy” for some problem in your life, but end up turning into a chronic bad behavior or addiction. Habits are the repeat, default scripts you run to when the going gets tough and continually lead to trouble in your life. Some common habits are:
- Abusive behavior
- Alcohol
- Bitterness
- Drugs
- Eating disorders
- Gambling
- Gossip
- Isolation
- Lying
- Self-harm
- Sexual Integrity
- Spending problems
- Wasteful pursuits
- Workaholism
- Pornography addiction
Hang Ups
“Hang-ups” are those roadblocks that keep you from progressing further in God’s plan for your life. They are often shaped by some bent thinking you may have received as a child, or some unhealthy attitude you may have adopted as a means of coping with life’s challenges. Here are some common hang-ups.

WHO IS CELEBRATE RECOVERY FOR?
Celebrate Recovery is for EVERYONE!
No one should have to face their pain alone.
We are a grace-filled community of strugglers who courageously enter this safe and beautiful space to get honest about our pain, and the negative ways we may see ourselves, God, and others. In this process, we come to accept that some of the habits we have developed to escape our pain may have hurt us and those close to us.
It is a biblically based approach to help us achieve long lasting recovery by healing our hurts, guiding us toward new healthy truths, and developing life-giving habits.
