Description
People in recovery don’t need another program.
Addiction's reach extends into every neighborhood, every church, every family. The need is urgent and the pain is real.
Churches want to help. But too often, good intentions launch programs without relationship, strategies without listening, services without understanding where God is already at work.
Rosario Picardo and Shannon Kiser have walked this ground. Through the launch of Fighting Chance Recovery in Dayton, Ohio—once the opioid overdose capital of America—and years of accompanying churches into everyday mission, they've learned that recovery ministry begins not with marketing plans but with joining God's healing work already underway.
Jesus is already present in recovery spaces, bringing freedom to the captive and hope to the hurting. You're invited to see where he's at work—and join in the transformation.
Planting Hope Here offers a different roadmap—one shaped by the Fresh Expressions Missional Journey framework
As a church leader, you don't bring Jesus to the recovery community. He's already there, bringing freedom to the captive and hope to the hurting. Planting Hope Here helps you learn to join the sacred work of renewal that God is already doing in the fragile, beautiful places where people are reaching for new life.
Perfect for:
Church planters and pastors exploring recovery ministry
Recovery professionals interested in faith-based community
Campus ministers and chaplains
Small groups and leadership teams discerning God's call
Anyone who believes the Body of Christ can take root where people are reaching for new life and discovering Jesus in the midst of their struggles
Whether you're a pastor, church planter, recovery professional, or simply someone who senses God's call to this holy, gritty work, pick up this book and discern your next faithful step to help those in recovery.
