The Addiction Connection

All of the workshops in this curriculum are completely biblical and will help me love better and disciple my residents thoroughly. I wished I would have found it seven years ago, but also VERY thankful for it now. D. E. "Sonshine" Troche

I enjoyed each teaching and thought each PowerPoint and lesson brought a new perspective on the thinking patterns and ways of an addict. I learned a lot!

This course has really helped open my eyes to addiction in ways that I never seen before. I have been a believer and walking with The Lord for 7 years now, and the aspect on addiction that The Lord has given Dr. Shaw is amazing! Many lives can and will be transformed through this.

I've been to some of your teachings and have read many of the books so this was a very thorough review. It reminded me of why I believe what I teach and was very encouraging.

I love the thought in all of this, and that it all aligns biblically. I am definitely more focused on Trauma and healing the heart. I accept addiction is sin, I just always look past sin to try and see if there is trauma before I address a sin issue. I love that I am able to learn about addiction from this perspective as well.

I have been through three in patient rehabs until coming to the Damascus House. A.A and 12 steps for four years. It was so clear and amazingly put that a 'higher power' to the addicts liking does not work because it can be whatever they want, fired at anytime, etc... thus making themselves the higher power, thus starting from square one with themselves being the problem in the first place. There is only one true higher power who cannot be fired and that is God. Trying to get the addict to understand and believe this is the goal!

I truly enjoyed this pre-requisite training to become commissioned as a Certified Biblical Addictions Counselor. I know it is a lot of info and there's a lot more to cover in the process. I am really looking forward to it.

I enjoyed the course and appreciate the insights given. One of the best things I learned is that it's not recovery that we should be concerned with but a "transformation." Makes perfect sense and I plan on using that more and more. They need to be transformed and nor recover to where they were at previously. Looking forward to completing the CABC program and moving on to see what God's will for me is after that. Thank you and God Bless.

I work at a Rescue Mission and have been looking for material and training to better serve our guests, especially those enslaved by addictions. This course was practical and extremely beneficial.

Thank you for providing such a comprehensive overview of the biblical approach to addiction treatment.

This course is in-depth and well put together. So much biblical truth being put fourth. Highly recommend going through this course.
