Description
Addiction treatment can be one of the most trying aspects of healthcare. The temporary euphoria of a drug-induced high can make one oblivious to the long-term damage that is occurring. Yet, so often it is through weakness that people come to know, or grow in, their relationship with Christ. God can use our efforts to unleash the power of the gospel in the lives of our patients.
