“No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.”
1 Corinthians 10:13

Bridge to Faith and other Biblically-based drug treatment options in Florida integrate general principles of Christianity and proven treatment methods to offer an approach to recovery that facilitates mental, physical, emotional and spiritual healing. Christians suffering from addiction most likely do not have a healthy relationship with Jesus Christ. They may feel lost, abandoned, disappointed and devastated. Revisiting the basic beliefs of Christianity can guide clients as they re-introduce themselves to Christ and learn to turn to him in times of uncertainty and weakness. Our caring, professional staff members have devoted themselves to supporting recovering Christians as they reacquaint themselves with the Lord and are committed to the successful recovery of each client we serve.
Clients in the Christian program at Bridge to Faith are surrounded by caring, professional Christians who have devoted their lives to Christ and supporting others as they overcome their addictions. Our years of experience have shown us that clients aren’t concerned with how much we know until they realize just how much we care. The Bridge to Faith team is composed of dedicated Christians who are clinicians, certified addictions counselors, licensed therapists and other trained professionals. Our staff members utilize their years of experience in the recovery field and their steadfast faith in Christ to guide clients as they learn to lead a healthy, sober life. They know that all things are possible through Christ and are dedicated to supporting recovering Christians as they come to the same faithful realization. With the love and compassion of the Bridge to Faith staff, clients learn to know God as an abundant source of strength and comfort.

Bridge to Faith provides a unique opportunity for recovering Christians to heal, but also the chance to connect with other Christians who are struggling with addiction. These individuals gain strength through shared stories of similar experiences regarding the ups and downs of addiction, recovery and relapse. Recovering Christians gain strength from knowing they are not alone in their struggle, that other faithful Christians have overcome similar obstacles and regained sight of their Lord and Savior. At Recovery Associates, we hope to foster a spiritual awakening that will positively transform individuals as they grow in their recovery and work toward a successful, long term sobriety.
Although Biblically-based drug treatment may be an obvious choice for Christians struggling with addiction, it may not be an apparent option for nonbelievers. Christ-center drug treatment programs are an effective treatment option for those who don’t know Christ, but would benefit from a relationship with a higher power. Biblically-based drug treatment is a wonderful treatment option for anyone struggling with addiction who is looking to overcome their addiction through faith and hope.
