DOWNLOAD EBOOK →A Christian 9 Step Program Addicts at the Cross takes a bold, unabashed stance in believing that what the Bible says is true. If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed (John 8:36). The nine steps have worked again and again. In fact, the only time the nine steps haven't worked is when an individual didn't sincerely want to deny himself, take up his cross, and follow Christ. The world tries to change people from the outside in. People are told that they fail because they grew up in dysfunctional homes or in a poor neighborhood, or because they lack education. However, highly educated, rich people also become addicts, are involved in heinous crimes, and fail in general. The world says addicts failed because they were unable to find work. Yet many men and women have good jobs and still end up in prison. Is it genetics? Some say that addicts have flawed genes or they were born that way, and as a result, they are permanently disabled. Out of all the excuses offered to us by the world, this is the saddest. A genetically flawed person may be beyond hope, but alcoholics can and do recover - they are not without hope. If we call sin what it is, then we have an opportunity to overcome that sin and be healed. If we call sin what it is, then we can accept what Christ did for us on the cross, we can be forgiven, and we can be changed.
