Our healing programs offer spiritual guidance to be a leading factor in the support structure for treatment.

For most people talking about addiction treatment can be a scary topic to address. If you or someone you love is struggling with an addiction and are considering treatment we want you to know that it is normal to feel fearful about what treatment will be liked. We hope that our programs at Legacy can help those with strong religious faith find comfort in your programs. Many of our program participants give credit to their spirituality as the main tool for not only feeling safe but also a sense of security in the rehabilitation process.

How Are Faith Based Rehabs Different?

Legacy’s Christ-centered programs give patients the benefit of combining their spiritual beliefs with clinical therapies that help heal both the mind and the body. We understand that recovering from addiction alone is scary and challenging. Because of this, we make sure to involve your family in therapy whenever possible so that they can support you along with our excellent team of medical professionals.

Our programs at Legacy not only successfully treat substance abuse addictions but also allow patients to strengthen their relationships with God.  This provides the platform for strong spiritual foundations in the road to recovery.

When individuals make the life-changing decision to enter one of our faith-based rehab programs we ensure to provide a fully integrated curriculum on all levels. This means that patients will be able to work on their spirituality during any step in any part of our programs. We believe that by healing the individual as a whole and incorporating faith-based therapy and traditional programs we can allow patients to recover in the way that is best for them.

What Does The Bible Say About Addiction?

At Legacy, we believe that the bible can be a guide and of support throughout times of suffering. We have selected the following passages that can help inspire those in need to understand why getting help is important.

We rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.     Romans 5:3-5

The Lord is at hand; do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.       Philippians 4:4

So, we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.       2 Corinthians 4:16-18

If you or someone you love is suffering from a substance abuse addiction and feel like you do not know what to do, allow Legacy Healing Center to help you and your loved ones begin the journey of health and spiritual healing.
