Book Description
Grace Overcomers Addiction Minstry, founded on the "Finished Work" of Jesus Christ, is a unique book that adresses addictions from a purely biblical perspective. Using a sound doctrinal premise to guide us, we have produced a primer that is an able tool in the hands of the pastor/teacher in the local assembly, the professor in the seminary, and the many students that will have questions regarding the issues of addiction. In addition to the above, it is most valuable in the hands of the person who struggles in this area. The book is set up in a simple format of Seven Guiding Principles and Seven Governing Precepts. The Fifteen Foundational Bedrocks; doctrines that when applied to ones life will transform the soul. There are eleven testimonies in the book that bear this out. It tells why the 12-step model, even though it may be Christ centered, can only take one so far on the road to recovery. It is loaded with scriptural citations and Bible commentary. Used by Prison Chaplain David Stambovsky, he says "The book is vital for raising men out of the dunghill and showing them their great value and potential in God's plan for their lives." Pastor Thomas Schaller adds, "Study the elements presented in this book. Testimonies of these believers smack of the genuine transformation that is available to all of us. I particularly enjoyed the chapter on "The Role of the Local Church in the Recovery From Addiction."

Book Description
“I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. For what I do is not the good I want to do; no, the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing.” (Romans 7:18-19, NIV) A Message of Hope—and a Plan of Action Addiction forges its own chains of pain and problems that grow with each day and seem impossible to overcome. If you, or someone you know, are a captive of addictive behavior, Neil Anderson and Mike Quarles have both a message of hope and a plan of action. Anyone can be set free from addictive behavior, can experience victory in Jesus and can become an overcomer in life! The key is to identify the root cause of your problem and instead of running away from it, run to God! Do this, and your mind and spirit will be renewed; and no matter what you struggle with, you will find your freedom in Christ!

Book Description
Many Christians are locked in a cycle of addiction, particularly in the areas of alcohol and drug abuse. Many have turned to 12-Step programs for help. But, where is the incredible power of Christ in this process? In a positive, non-condemning way, Anderson provides an alternative model of recovery for substance and alcohol abusers, a model that will also work for individuals struggling with other kinds of addictions. The first half of Freedom from Addictions tells the unbelievable story of Mike and Julia Quarles, and how Mike overcame a debilitating addiction to alcohol. He achieved success by applying the principles that make up the central theme of Dr. Anderson's message: that we are saints according to God's word (Eph 1) and that true freedom comes from realizing o ur identity in Christ.

Book Description
You were born to live free by God's grace. For some people freedom means walking away from a terrible memory or experience such as a divorce, rape, or other emotional trauma. For others freedom means getting unstuck from life-sapping thoughts or behaviors that keep them from flourishing in their relationships and walk with Christ.

Book Description
In an age of tell-all addiction memoirs and reality television programs, we gulp down the stories of others in the hope that we, too, can be overcomers–even as we continue to love a person, substance, activity, or ideology too much. As Sharon Hersh writes, “We all suffer from the same condition.” In The Last Addiction, she explores why we are prone to addiction–to make one thing in our lives more central than it should be–and how we can break free of our compulsions. This is not a book of “self-help” answers or “how-to” steps. It is a book about falling down and getting up again, about realizing that we need more than ourselves to be saved. The truth is, we’re not as bad as we think we are–and we are worse than we ever dreamed. When we live between those two realities, we are ready to let go of the last idol: the belief that we can save ourselves. The Last Addiction invites you to see your own story more clearly as you better understand your longing for intimacy. It invites you to love boldly and receive love in return. It invites you to the freedom of redemption.

Book Description
Does Christianity have an answer for addiction? As longtime pastor Mike Quarles’s alcoholism worsened over eight years, churches and Christians referred him to treatment, 12-Step programs, therapy...nothing worked. Steve McVey, also a pastor, repeatedly dished out the same advice Mike received, with similarly poor results... ...Until, in their frustration, God led them back to basic, addiction-breaking truths of His Word. The authors explain these for readers who want to help someone or who struggle themselves, because freedom from addiction is found only when Christians fully believe what God says about their identity move beyond the 12-Step concept of inescapable “addict identity” stop harboring unforgiveness, get radically right with God, and dwell in who they are in Christ, which excludes engaging in addictive behaviors as a lifestyle Material on codependency is included, as is information on implementing recovery/support groups for those leaving addiction and starting to live in God’s glorious freedom.
