What is celebrate recovery?

Celebrate Recovery is a Christian-based 12-step program designed to help individuals struggling with a variety of hurts, hang-ups, and habits. It is open to anyone seeking healing and freedom from issues such as addiction, codependency, anger, grief, anxiety, and more.

Founded in 1991 by Pastor John Baker of Saddleback Church in California, Celebrate Recovery emphasizes spiritual growth, fellowship, and support in a safe and confidential environment. Meetings typically include worship, sharing personal testimonies, and small group discussions focused on the 12 steps and their biblical foundation.

Celebrate Recovery has grown to become a global program with over 35,000 churches hosting groups in more than 20 countries. It has helped millions of individuals find hope, healing, and restoration in their lives.

Participants in Celebrate Recovery can expect to receive encouragement, accountability, and practical tools to help them overcome their struggles, develop healthy habits, and grow in their relationship with God. The program is open to people of all faith backgrounds and is inclusive and non-judgmental in its approach.
