CONNECTING THE
HOPE OF THE GOSPEL
WITH THE HEART OF ADDICTION
Host a Disciple-Making Program for Addicts!
Next Steps: Be TRANSFORMED is a brand-new online biblical group study for addicts.
Taught by Dr. Mark Shaw in video format, this program makes it easy for you to start an outreach program to addicts within your own community.
Through you, the Body of Christ, we pray addicts across the world can align with Christ to aim beyond sobriety and take the next steps to be transformed into the image of Jesus Christ.
