What Is A Sponsor?


You can’t do life alone.
I’ve probably said this phrase a million times… well maybe not a MILLION times (because that’s seriously a LOT), but I’ve said it a bunch of times.

You can’t do life alone.
Don’t try.
Don’t bother.

If there’s one thing I’ve learned in my 4 years at Celebrate Recovery, it’s that I NEED people. And this is a far cry from what I thought, felt, and believed before. I was convinced I was better alone. I wanted to be the Lone Ranger (minus Tonto). I wanted to stand on the mountaintop all by myself, looking around, and celebrating everything I had accomplished ON MY OWN!

Then I realized on my own I have a crazy tendency to slip up, trip up, and fall down. That’s when I discovered my need for OTHER PEOPLE in my life. I can’t express in words (though I’m about to try) the importance of hearing how others are struggling and experiencing victory, hearing others call me out and ask me how I’m doing, and just getting around people for help and encouragement.

At Celebrate Recovery we call these people Sponsors and Accountability Partners. I also call them necessary and crucial.

This Thursday (6-8:30p) at New Life Church (4102 Tabler Station Road, Inwood, WV 25428) I’m hosting SPONSOR TRAINING. That’s right. The purpose of this training is to teach you what to LOOK FOR in a Sponsor and equip you to BE a Sponsor.

I am OVER THE TOP EXCITED for this training! I believe this will take our Celebrate Recovery to the NEXT LEVEL!

Grab your friends. Grab your parents. Grab your neighbors. Grab your co-workers. Grab everyone and anyone you know to attend and participate in this training. It’s going to be an EYE-OPENING event!

Discover how God can transform the MESS of your past into a MESSAGE of hope!

Reflect: 
  • Is there anything in your life that you'd struggle to GIVE UP if asked?
  • Are you currently struggling with a hurt, habits, or hang-up?
  • What pain from your PAST continues to hurt your PRESENT?
  • Are you ready to experience freedom and help others in the process?
