LESSONS WE DISCUSS
Each support meeting will discuss a lesson from the Support Guide. A physical manual/ workbook is given to each woman. You can also access the lessons online.
The purpose of this guide is to highlight gospel principles and doctrine that can help women find peace and healing through the power of Jesus Christ and His Atonement. This guide does not include a prescriptive list of steps that will lead to healing for all people; rather, it will help you learn and apply gospel principles. The support group will go through the 12 lessons over and over.
God Will Console Us in Our Afflictions
Shake Off the Chains with Which Ye Are Bound
He Will Take upon Him the Pains and the Sicknesses of His People
Draw Near unto Me
Take Heed unto Thyself
Thy Friends Do Stand by Thee
In Everything Give Thanks
Be Firm and Steadfast
We Have Renounced Dishonesty
Lift Up the Hands Which Hang Down
Bear All These Things with Patience
My Peace I Give unto You
As you discuss these principles, the Spirit can direct you to apply these principles in the ways that will be the most helpful and relevant to your situation. Through this process, you will gain a better understanding of Jesus Christ and His power to help you heal and find hope.
NOTE: The title and introduction of the guidebook focuses on Spouses and Families of Recovering Addicts. Our support group is not just for spouses or families of recovering addicts. While we use that manual, our support group is available to help women from all areas of challenges, not just addiction scenarios.
