and am coming out of
from my understanding some past trauma was triggered from attending celebrate recovery meetings and I needed to confront those traumatic memories and beliefs with my current faith and beliefs and I am healing because of doing this

How's that been going otherwise? What's it like there?
people think that Christians are stupid, but I feel more intelligent than I ever have in my life, because every time I genuinely ask Jesus to tell me the truth about something or ask for a solution to a problem, He always gives it to me and it is always so much more intelligent and beautiful and wise than anything that I think that I could ever come up with on my own
James 1:5
5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
Jeremiah 33:3
3 Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.
Well I helped too.

it is a very friendly and welcoming and forgiving environment, no one is turned away unless you maybe start destroying property or yelling and screaming at people and physically assaulting them which I've never seen happen there or in any church before personally but it probably happens sometimes, anyway there is a big group where there is worship and then either a testimony or a lesson having to do with the beattitudes and the 12 steps, and then we break off into smaller groups that focus on more specific issues, men and women in separate groups and for women there is life issues, codependency, and addiction, I am in the addictions one
then we all get a chance to share our take away from the main group, and any prayer requests and things like that
overall just a very positive welcoming environment to work through your issues unisolated, and I think it is much more difficult to recover alone and isolated personally and I think that is the general consensus
Well I helped too.
don't mock God, until you can be a good example of His love and the fruits of the Holy spirit I would not be taking credit for helping anyone at all
Galatians 5:22-23
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
God does not accuse you falsely, and you accuse me falsely on so many things Spatial, this is just one example of how you are not truly a useful servant of the Lord, and you should stop feeling righteous or holy because you are not any of those things, only Jesus is, and only Jesus can give you the power to be a truly useful servant to him properly exemplifying His love and forgiveness and peace and helpfulness unto other people

Yeah, it's helpful to have an outside set of eyes. Glad to hear it's working out for you there.
I assume you haven't told them about the whole Divine Mother thing?
