With a foreword by Pastor Rick Warren, Life's Healing Choices small group study, a resource tied to Celebrate Recovery (and Saddleback Community Church), offers happiness and healing through eight choices that lead to transformation.

Ideal as a small group Bible study or Christian support group guide, this book equips participants to confront and overcome habits and hang-ups, offering a compassionate framework for healing from addiction and emotionally healing Bible study in a community setting. Whether used in a church recovery curriculum or a personal Christian healing journey, the guide encourages deep connection, reflection, and support.

Embraced by thousands of churches across the country, Life’s Healing Choices is a cornerstone recovery resource. It focuses on eight well-defined steps including Admitting Need, Getting Help, and Letting Go—each rooted in a biblical healing process and practical enough to serve as a step-by-step recovery plan. As a Bible study for healing, it also serves as a spiritual wholeness guide and faith and mental health workbook, offering powerful tools for inner healing, personal growth, and stronger relationships in the context of Christian group therapy.

"Sometimes, recovery, healing, and spiritual growth are talked about as if they are three different topics. What I like about John's work is that he brings them all together, and we find that no matter what our issues, we are all on the same path. Life's Healing Choices will be a help along that path to all who read it." —Dr. Henry Cloud, author of Boundaries
