One of the reasons I came down to TX was to be a part of Recovery at The Village. I went for the first time tonight. Amazing. A room full of people--real, honest, broken people--depending utterly on the grace of God (and the community of His people) to change...to grow...to heal...to recover.
What is Recovery at the Village? Recovery at The Village exists to bring glory to God through lives changed by the gospel of Jesus Christ. It is a repentance and reconciliation ministry that seeks to counsel people into the fullness of joy that God intends for His children. e.
We provide those who find themselves struggling with the effects of sin a safe place to walk honestly in loving community and receive God's truth in addressing life's difficulties.
I'm convinced that it is vital for every local church to encourage their people to fight indwelling sin by providing a grace-saturated, Christ-centered, community-oriented context to do so. Too often church folk are forced to put on the Sunday-smile and walk around hiding their sin from others, in fear of being embarrassed or even shunned for the secret sins and struggles that plague their lives. Everyone is broken. Everyone needs grace. I'm so encouraged that at The Village "It's ok to not be ok...but it's not ok to stay there." By God's grace, may we all fight the sin that plagues us so deeply within. Get help.
