1.) It's based on actual words of Jesus Christ.
2.) It is forward looking, not backward looking. (future-focused, what am I going to do now?)
-- I'm not going to let my sins define me
-- I'm a believer who struggles
3.) It puts strong emphasis on personal responsibility.
-- accuses others, excuses self
-- blame - be lame!
-- why did you do what you did?
4.) It calls for a spiritual and specific commitment to Christ.
5.) It empasizes growth and healing in the context of small groups.
-- church in action
-- no perfect people please!
6.) It is a leadership factory.
-- end goal is not I'm healed but you pass it on
How you know you're recovering? You stop thinking about yourself and start thinking about helping others.
