Incorporating Christian preaching in recovery treatment


Men are traditionally bread winners of the family. They have been assigned this role since ages. Thus their role demands are different from those of women. The men have to face different set of problems than the women. Thus their behavior is different; their way of tackling those problems is different. Biologically men are way too different and their emotional set up is also different. Thus their requirements to deal with problems or addictions completely vary from women. Even after being so different from each other, one thing many individuals believe is the highest power.

Many may not name it but the faith surely is there. All around the world there are many people who religiously follow some or the other faith; there are many who do not follow any. Everybody is free to follow their own path of thoughts. But according to my personal opinion, there may not be any soul on the surface of earth, who does not believe in supremacy of a power that lies above everything else, it should not necessarily have any form. Not everything is within the reach of a human being. Even after being the most developed natural creation, many of the incidents leave us speechless and they are beyond our comprehensive capabilities. Many rehabs follow Christian drug treatment for recovery along with the medical support.

Men are very much prone to addictions as they are more emotionally weak. They need external emotional and mental support, without which they feel incomplete. A strong emotional support can take men places, but without it they can crumble. This element also differentiates men from women. Women are emotionally stronger species. Considering these varied needs and requirements of both these species there are separate rehabs specially designed for men, where they have all men staff.. It is very human to feel comfortable in the company of the same sex. People tend to respond in a very positive and cooperative manner while surrounded by the similar sex.

They very much feel connected and co relate with each other’s problem, giving a very reciprocal response. The basic belief behind this concept is that, it is natural to feel more connected to each other’s problems and one can open up more for new developments seeing similar gender people suffering similarly. Men’s addiction center treats them following a holistic approach toward healing. Receiving addiction treatment in a men's only program provides the recovering alcoholic or addict the benefit of working together and forging caring bonds of support and accountability with other recovering men.
