Celebrate Recovery Rehab Programs

Do you ever feel like you're caught in a cycle you can't break on your own, no matter how hard you try? That sense of being stuck can feel isolating, but the truth is, you don't have to face it alone. Here in Indiana, there’s a welcoming, faith-based community ready to walk beside you as you heal and grow—offering understanding, support, and hope every step of the way.

About Celebrate Recovery

Celebrate Recovery is a Christ-centered, 12-step recovery program designed to help people find healing and freedom. It started at Saddleback Church with Pastor John Baker, who saw a need for a safe place where people could work through their struggles with the support of Jesus Christ. This program isn't just for substance abuse; it’s for anyone dealing with personal "hurts, hang-ups, or habits."^[1] This could be anything from anxiety and grief to anger and codependency. The core of the program integrates biblical principles with the recovery process, creating a path toward lasting change and spiritual growth.

Is CR a good fit for me?

Wondering if Celebrate Recovery is the right fit for you? If you’re looking for a spiritual framework to guide your recovery journey, it could be a perfect match. Unlike groups such as Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), CR has an explicit focus on Jesus and uses biblical teachings as the foundation for healing. While the program is Christian-based, you don’t have to be a member of any specific faith to attend; people from all backgrounds are welcome in this community.^[2]

You might find CR especially helpful if you are:

• Looking for a supportive, faith-based community that understands.
• Dealing with issues that go beyond substance use, like emotional pain or relationship problems.
• Seeking a structured recovery path rooted in biblical teachings.

How do I start attending Celebrate Recovery?

Taking that first step to attend a meeting can feel like the hardest part, but the process is simple. You just have to show up. There’s no need to register beforehand, and you don’t have to pay anything to attend Celebrate Recovery meetings. They are free and open to everyone. Your first experience will likely involve a large group gathering that might start with worship music or a lesson. Afterward, the meeting usually breaks into smaller, gender-specific groups where people can share openly and offer encouragement. Don't worry, you won't be forced to speak until you feel comfortable and ready. The focus is on creating a safe space for everyone’s journey. Many find the format similar to other 12-step-based programs, but with a unique, faith-centered approach.
