Description
Rising drug and alcohol addiction use and resulting deaths continue to alarm communities across our nation. Other addictive-like behaviors such as cutting, pornography, eating disorders, obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors, and gambling continue to rise as well. Everyone's life is touched by someone who is addicted or struggling with a life-dominating sinful habit.
This course reveals how even secular practitioners and researchers are pointing to non-medical root causes which the Bible already addresses in very profound ways. God's Word equips the church to help other believers overcome addiction. Students in this course will learn to use a simple C.A.R.E. model that will enable them to help believers overcome addiction.
Who this course is for:
- Anyone interested in helping people from a biblical perspective.
