HEBREWS 4:11-13 NKJV
"For the word of God is living and powerful,
and sharper than any two-edged sword,
piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow,
and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart."
The Christian Solution for Addictions: JESUS!
The Ministry Leader's Manual provides Biblical resources for achieving
freedom from bondage to addictions through faith in and obedience to God's Word.
If we don't know what God expects and promises,
how can hope to experience complete healing?
Not just Christian "recovery" resources for addictions and codependency,
but principles from the Word of God to encourage spiritual sanctification by the Holy Spirit.
"The Most Excellent Way" is a psychology-free, twelve-step-free ministry.
We WIN, DISCIPLE, MEND and SEND Christians in Jesus' name.
We freely give you the LOVE, ACCEPTANCE and FORGIVENESS
that we ourselves have received by faith and obedience to our Lord and Savior,
Jesus Christ, as taught in the inherent Word of God.
