proclaims God's present and powerful love to all persons, regardless their failures and ruin. Whether the reader is struggling to overcome addiction, or is already enjoying recovery, The Rescue is meant to help any person working any 12 Step program. </p><p>The Rescue will bring a deeper dimension of God into 12 step recovery, whether it be from alcohol addiction, drug addiction, co-dependancy, pornography addiction, gambling addiction or any other 12 step discipline. </p><p>Through reflections and short Scripture passages, The Rescue: A 12-Step Recovery Bible Study proclaims God is good. God is powerful. His Word is a living word, and He wants to rescue His beloved children from the bondage of shame and addiction. He wants to rescue His children for freedom and joy in Him. God wants to be a light in your life so that you can be a light in the lives of others.</p><blockquote><p><em>The 12 steps programs have been of immense help to millions of people. Monica Pope has now integrated the profound wisdom of the 12 steps literature with the power of God's Word in Scripture. This is an important contribution.</em></p><p>-Dr. Ralph Martin, S.T:D,, director of Graduate Theology Programs in the New Evangelization, Sacred Heart Major Seminary, Archdiocese of Detroit</p></blockquote><blockquote><p><em>I am sober several years and I both work and live the 12 steps of recovery. I also am the founder of a facility that houses 30 women with their children. These are women who have substance abuse issues, are homeless and they can stay with us for up to 2 cars. Reading "THE RESCUE" has opened my eyes to a new self-examination for myself that I am anxious to pass on to the women we serve. What a spiritual journcy this has been for me and I look forward to publication!</em></p><p>-Dr. Paula Whitman, Paula's House</p></blockquote><p>You can purchase<em> The Rescue: A 12-Step Recovery Bible Study </em><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B094T5KDT5?ref_=cm_sw_r_apan_dp_53JRKKS7DM8SAPE4WMRF">here</a><em>.</em></p><p>If you are interested in live online ministry formation/ training sessions for<em>The Rescue </em>12 step recovery groups, please email: <a href="http://practicalkerygmaschool@gmail.com/">practicalkerygmaschool@gmail.com</a></p>]]></content:encoded></item></channel></rss>
