A ministry of Teen Challenge International, Lifeline of Eastern Kentucky offers non-residential ministry groups designed to reach out to people facing everyday challenges of life that can become overwhelming, such as addiction to alcohol and other drugs, and to provide support for their families by implementing the five components of recovery: decision, positive peer choice, accountability, boundaries and consistency.
Lifeline Groups offered include:
- Insight -- This small group discusses the Upward Path to Christian Character as described in 2 Peter 1:3-11 and covers the definition and phases of a life-controlling problem, delusion and denial, walls of defenses, leveling, and ministry to one another.
- Concerned Persons -- Specifically targets families of those struggling with addictions and covers enabling, boundaries, co-dependency, as well as comfort, hope and letting go and letting God.
- Stepping Into Freedom -- A 12-step faith-based recovery group ministry for addicts.
- Restoring Families -- A small group ministry helping families coming to grips with abuse and family violence, and seeing the healing of wounded emotions and reconciliation with boundaries.
Since February 2005, UNITE has conducted 15 Lifeline training sessions involving more than 385 people, conducted two fundraising golf scrambles and held a fundraising rally. For more information on trainings and events click here.
