We Need Each Other
We all have hurts, habits, and hangups. We all face the pain of what life presents. We all need each other for support in difficult and trying times. You’ll find a variety of ways to receive the care and recovery you need.

You’re Never More Than 6 Days From Help
At some level, we all experience brokenness. Through Re:Generation, we believe people can experience growth and new life by working through the healing path God has given us in the Bible. The mission of this biblically-based program is to call all people to be fully devoted followers of Christ. Our experience and prayer is that you will find healing from your hurts, habits, and hang-ups.
We are an authentic community of Christ-followers, relentless in helping each other experience intimacy with God and committed to glorifying God through regenerated lives. Re:generation will help you to “struggle well,” ultimately finding freedom from hurts, habits, and hang-ups by putting Christ at the center of all healing.
So whether you are struggling with substance abuse, codependency, pornography, eating disorders, depression, emotional/physical abuse, same sex attraction, anger, or obsessive thoughts—or if you are just stuck in a particular area of life—come as you are and find that God wants to heal you. He loves you and has a plan for you.

There is no cost for the program. The only monetary fee involved is to cover the step study books. The Groundwork book is $10 and each of the 5 step study books are $10, for a total suggested donation of $60. Please do not let money be an issue. We will cover the cost if necessary.
At 6:30, we meet as a large group to worship and listen to either a teaching or a testimony of someone who has walked through his or her own recovery. Afterwards, a leader will announce that we are breaking into small groups. Newcomers will be directed to stay in the auditorium. On your second time at re:generation, you go to Groundwork. You will attend Groundwork for a minimum of 6 weeks, after which we place you in a closed step study group (small group). The whole program can be completed in as little as 12 months.
Once you get in a step study group, you will begin working through the step study curriculum which is rooted in Scripture, incorporating the 12 steps. Your groups are formed, typically, with the people that arrived at re:generation around the same time you did and are separated by gender. Our groups are not issue specific. The reason for this is because we choose not to highlight the specific sin issue. Instead, we focus on why it is that we all sin. There will be approximately 10-12 people in your step study group.

We believe that all people are created in the image of God, and we function at our best in relationship with others. This is why we encourage every person at GFC to be a part of a group. Having said that, sometimes we need specialized attention to work through more difficult seasons in life (such as death of a loved one, trauma, depression or anxiety). There are several counselors we recommend to individuals who need this type of care. These men and women share our philosophy of helping people through difficult times. You can contact them directly, or fill out the Care form below and we will get back to you.
