We have heard the expression "time heals all wounds." Unfortunately, it is not true. The truth is time often makes things worse. What we need is a biblical and balanced program to help people overcome their hurts, habits, and hang-ups. Rev. Rick Warren of Saddleback Church began an intense study of the Scriptures to discover what God had to say about "recovery." He found the principles of recovery given by Christ in His most famous message, the Sermon on the Mount. His study resulted in a ten-week series of messages called "The Road to Recovery" and during that series his associate pastor John Baker developed the participant's and leader's guides. Whether your congregation is large or small, this program will help you implement an ongoing Christ-centered Recovery Ministry in your church. The curriculum kit includes:
20-minute videotaped introductory guide for leaders; l Leader's Guide; Participant's guides 1-4; 3.5 diskette with 25 lessons; Road to Recovery series; 8-tape audio cassette series; sermon transcripts; Reproducible promotional materials

This video intended to inspire viewers to the high calling of a healing ministry. The church is beginning to reclaim its healing ministry. Congregations have rediscovered healing services, called Parish Nurses and made the care for the sick an important part of it ministry. Kenneth Bakken, physician and pastor, has made the recovery of healing ministries a major focus of his life. He serves a parish, speaks at major national events and continues to see patients at a clinic. Father John Calbom is an Orthodox priest who is researching the healing power of love in prayer. Patricia Cole is a professor at the University of Minnesota Medical School, maintains a medical practice and is also active in her congregation in a healing ministry. Margaret Kittleson is a practitioner of healing prayer. When her husband was in a coma and near death she noted that his vital signs improved while she was present and praying. Her husband experienced a miraculous healing through the simple prayer of his father. She speaks of her experience with prayer and admits that this is scary territory for most but invites the viewer to enter into the mystery of healing prayer. This video invites people into a practice of prayer for healing and offers several simple steps based in part on James 5:13-16.
