I reside in rockland county New York and we have a samll group of men and also a small womens group that meet on Sunday. i read some comments on the CR website and like to share some thoughts. There are two DPI publication one is called Some Sat in Darkness and the other Rejocie Always. I Highly recomend these books as a good guide for us alone with the Bible. Furthermore The AA big book has a chaphter called to the wives which is a good guide. As far as attending meetings AA as well as Al-alon is good but just as the any meeting it best to exaime the scriptures asd well as the other books I mention to see if what you here at meetings agree with the writen word. Thank you so much for allowing me to share these thoughts with you. I respect you all for you passion to recover and help others to recover as well. Vic
Hi. I'm a disciple from the Indian Church of Christ, Mumbai. My husband is an alcoholic. We got married in the church. Unfortunately, he never got over his drinking problem. We were both serving in the ministry. We were asked to step down once it was discovered. He was soon asked to take a 'break' from Church. Two months ago, he decided to quit, but went through a bad withdrawl. This followed with hospitalization and now he is in rehab. I've learned since then that I've been a codependent. However, some of things I've learned at Al-Anon are not quite biblical as they teach us to be selfish. Looking for friends who can really understand as out here we cannot get access to books and support groups.
Hope, I work with a group of women going through Codependency Recovery. We are starting the book Discover Joy by Dr. Joy Bodzioch. It doesn't deal with co-dependency directly, but many of the issues she addresses are related to issues we have as codependents. I believe that as we get our hearts right, God uses that to affect our husbands. Much love and prayer,
My husband is a disciple...unfortunately, he had relapsed many times during this time. He recognizes that he has a problem and make many attempts to recover, but he fails again.... He is an awesome man when connected with God. The relapses had made him loose hope. We don't have a CR ministry in the area that we are at... I in the other hand had not been able to remain righteous when addressing his sin. What can I do...
