Scientific evidence suggests that being cheerful seems to have positive benefits on our over-all health.

The Lord gives strength to his people; the Lord blesses his people with peace.

God teaches us to know His will through the Bible and through following good counsel from pastors, sponsors, and Christian friends who have been faithfully walking with God for some time.

Integrity is one of the most valued character qualities a person can have.

As we go forward in recovery, we have come to the realization that we are accountable for the actions we have done, the behaviour that has impacted our relationships, and the problems we created throughout our life in addiction.
