I had the most amazing experience. I got to attend a graduation ceremony for the Hwy 80 Mission / Triumph Village rehabilitation program. 7 men were graduating the 10-12 month program. One of whom, Ike, is a member at our local work.

Adam Bradley was there. He is a deacon at our church, is 14 years sober himself, and is really the guy who got all of the things started we've been able to join into with the programs. Especially once a great catalyst, Kyle Berry, came to town.

Adam presented a lesson with this opening line "Addiction is addiction." It was AWESOME. Sobering, a little scary, but so on the nose, right to the heart, true that I wish all could hear it. I took notes as quickly as I could and want to share it with you. 

In summery, here are some bullet points to consider:
- Addiction is addiction not matter what you are facing.
- So you are not alone in the fight. 
- But you also must not exchange one addiction for another.
- There is one solution for all addiction: Jesus Christ. 
- But you have to admit the problem is internal. It is yours.
- Christ renovates hearts and mind, the inside, and then lives.
- He can do this for anyone who submits to HIm.
- But deliverance to freedom is the beginning, not the end.
- You MUST deepen your relationship with Christ daily and always.
