Recovery @ Antioch
Proverbs 27:17
In October of 2023 Ashley Arnold reached out to our pastor about starting a recovery meeting at Antioch. On the 12th of January 2024 the meetings started on Friday nights. They haven't stopped since. Over the years we have grown and learned what it means to recover together. We Do Recover. We have to lean on Christ and give Him what our lives have become but it's worth it all. All the pain, all the tears, all the prayers that go into recovery. Ashley started our recovery ministry using curriculum from Recovery Alive, Inc. based in Selma, NC. Here is some of their history. Recovery Alive was founded in 2020 by John Eklund during the COVID-19 Pandemic Crisis. John Eklund has 20+ years experience working in recovery ministry, is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and is an ordained pastor currently ministering at Temple City Church. In 2020, John and his team prioritized the need for accessible online recovery meetings, making the commitment to build a Christ-centered recovery program that had the ability to be 100% online AND in-person. Since then, Recovery Alive has grown to include 70+ churches who have partnered together to launch Recovery Alive Meetings around the world.
