God Can (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781498477031)

Drug addiction is sweeping across our country - from small towns and communities to large cities. When my wife and I encountered the demon of drug addiction in the life of our adult daughter, we searched frantically for something that would help. The resources we found lacked the insight and help that we needed. Our prayer is that this little book will help many navigate the confusing, devastating, and violent world of substance abuse. We also pray that it will be a lighthouse of hope to many and help them realize that the person caught up in substance abuse can find help, hope, and healing.Communities who realize that the substance abuse issue is a community problem, and that all community members need to be a part of the solution, are on the way to victory in this social, cultural, medical, spiritual, economic, legal, and emotional war. The Field of Hope has become a rallying point in our little community in Southeastern Ohio. Our recent annual celebration and fundraiser saw nearly 300 people attend from churches, law enforcement, the court system, and political representatives from both the county and state, family members of those caught in addiction, businesses, and others who have a passion for healing in their community.Defeating substance abuse is a complicated battle. Ironically it all starts with a principle stated in Steps One and Two of the famous twelve step model used by AA (Alcoholics Anonymous) and NA (Narcotics Anonymous). "1. We admitted we were powerless over our addictions and compulsive behaviors, that our lives had become unmanageable. 2. We came to believe that a power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity." That power is from our Creator God - He has granted healing in others' lives, and God Can in yours or your loved ones' life.
