God wants to take us on a pilgrimage to a place where hopelessness is replaced by hope, and death is traded for life. These meditations are our story. An imperfect journey, by imperfect people, into the loving arms of the Father. We've been saved by the blood of Jesus and encouraged by the Holy Spirit to continue the recovery journey on his way, not ours. Serenity is possible because all things are possible for those who believe in Christ Jesus. In recovery himself, and part of a faith-based recovery ministry, Serenity Village, for 10 years, Mike Shea has written in these pages essential, yet practical, tools for those who are sick of being sick, and tired of living beneath what God has for them.
