Hello everyone, Sorry it's been so long without a new episode. We've fixed the problems we've been having and have a number of new episodes to bring to you.This week's is the first in a series of episodes that we're calling Q#38;A. Johnny, Bob and Tina took a number of questions they've gotten at the Advanced Leadership Training Seminars and took some time to have a discussion about them.We'll be bringing the entire conversation over the next couple of weeks. Hope you enjoy them!

This week Johnny and Bob spoke over a very long distance aboutnbsp;Celebrate Recovery mission trips.If you're interested in takingnbsp;Celebrate Recovery around the world, or know folks who are, you aren't going to want to miss this one.

And we're back...nbsp;Wow, well it's been a while since we posted a new podcast, but here it is. nbsp;This week Bob and Johnny discuss how to restore a leader that has had a relapse. You won't find a step by step, one-size-fits-all plan here, instead, Bob and Johnny talk about some things to keep in mind as you put a plan together. We had a bit of sound problems this week, but they should benbsp;straightenednbsp;out soon.nbsp;Give us your feedback in the comments or send us comments and questions to questions@celebraterecoveryblogs.com.nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;nbsp;

Hello Everyone, Thanksgiving is right around the corner and Christmas isn't far behind. For many of us, the holidays can be rough. Because of this, Bob and Johnny sat down and talked about the Predictable Pattern of Relapse. The Four C's come right out of Pastor John's new book, Life's Healing Choices. Make sure to check it out!

Ahh, technology. Sometimes I love it, sometimes, not so much. This week technology was a pain in the neck, and it was a lot of work to get this podcast on the air. We're bringing you Tina's testimony this week so you can hear about her recovery journey. Now, before my computer decides to do anything else to test me...here it is!

This week, we're bringing you something a little different.nbsp; We brought our microphone with us to our Monthly Leader's Meeting and recorded something special. Pastor John sat down and interviewed a few of our leaders about some of the things that excite them about being Celebrate Recovery leaders. Here are the questions he asked: How many years have you been a Celebrate Recovery leader? What brings you the most joy in leading a Celebrate Recovery group? Without breaking confidentiality, what are some of the greatest victories (changed lives) that you have seen it the groups you've lead? How has being a Celebrate Recovery leader helped in your own recovery? How do you stay fresh- renewed as a Celebrate Recovery leader? The sound quality isn't as good as usual, but the heart of the leaders rings through.nbsp; I suggest you spend some time answering these questions yourself, and with your leadership team. See you next week!

This podcast was recorded right after the Celebrate Recovery One Day event in Portland, Oregon.nbsp; What a great event! Johnny and Bob discuss the importance of Open Share groups and the need to keep them as a central part ofnbsp; a healthy Celebrate Recovery.

Hey everyone, Well, it's late but here it is. This weeks podcast was a real challenge to get done.nbsp; We had all kinds of problems, from scheduling to technical, but it's here at last. This week, Johnny and Bob talk about the fifth and final guideline.nbsp;nbsp; If you get a chance, head on over to iTunes and give us a review.nbsp; We'd love to hear what you think.

The fourth installment of the guidelines series is ready to go.nbsp; This week Bob and Johnny discuss the fourth guideline, the need for confidentiality.nbsp; They talk about the need to enforce this guideline and some of the special circumstances involved here.

The conversation about the Celebrate Recovery guidelines continues. This week Johnny and Bob are joined by Pastor John Baker and Tina Davis as they discuss the third Guideline and look at some of the ways we can cross the line from supporting one another to trying to fix others.

This week Johnny and Bob are joined by National Training Coach Tina Davis. The trio discuss the 2nd Small Group Guideline, Crosstalk.
