how hope for addiction equips the local church
Because we address addiction biblically and deal with the root cause, our materials are applicable for every sin struggle.
There are unique considerations for each category of addiction and Hope for Addiction primarily addresses the unique aspects of substance addiction. Biblical application is the same for all addictions, but practical accountability looks different.
WHAT IS THE SCOPE OF ADDICTIONS ADDRESSED? SUBSTANCES, GAMBLING, PORN, OTHERE LIFE DOMINATING SINS?
We are passionate about equipping local churches to effectively and compassionately walk with struggling addicts with our compromising biblical truth. The paid membership level includes an option for strategy phone or zoom calls with our staff to equip you to effectively care for a specific individual in your church.
​
One-on-One consulting will be available soon for all churches.

TRAINING AND SUPPORT
AVAILABLE?
If you are a follower of Christ, you ARE equipped. You do not need special training or experience with addiction. Our resources provide what you need to make disciples and welcome the hurting into your church. While it is helpful to understand behaviors and temptations of an addict, that is not the solution for change. A growing relationship with Jesus Christ does the work. Simply showing how the gospel guides your life in practical ways, has a profound impact.​

Church partnerships
why pastors Hope for addiction
No matter what your church is already doing or desires to do to care for the hurting, Hope for Addiction will support you! Some of our training is basic biblical counseling training and is beneficial for all of your church leaders in any ministry and in their own lives. While we are your go to for all things addiction, we actually address heart issues, which are universal. Therefore Hope for Addiction training is applicable and beneficial for everyone who struggles against sin.
One of our partner churches, Mercy Hill Church in downtown Phoenix, has been running a Recovering Hope meeting for over six years. God used the Hope for Addiction training they received and the support and relationship with Hope for Addiction to lead them to start a biblical counseling ministry in their church. The gospel is the only lasting solution for all of life. Offering biblical counseling is a way Mercy Hill can serve their community with gospel hope.
