There is an epidemic facing our nation, and like so many other problems it has entered our churches as well, it is the epidemic of addiction. Today all over America, regardless of denomination, our pews are full of men, women, and children who are trapped in the dilemma of addiction. There is only one answer for their dilemma, Jesus. But like so many other sin, many who come to Jesus and achieve abstinence, continue to struggle with their evil desires. Christ-centered, biblically based counseling is needed to guide them to a stronger relationship with God. The purpose of this paper is to show that Christ-Centered recovery through biblical counseling can produces genuine change in the heart of the addict. It proves that the only way for the addict to be free is to find a power, a power that is beyond themselves, that can free them from addiction. That power, is the power of the Holy Ghost, the power of the risen indwelling presence of Jesus Christ. But the only way that this powercan rest upon them, they only way it can deliver them, is for them to confess their weakness and inability to resolve the dilemma of addiction on their own.
