CELEBRATE RECOVERY
This is a Christ-centered, Bible-based – 12 Step Recovery Program. Celebrate Recovery focuses on fellowship and on God's healing power. By working the 12 Steps and the 8 Beatitude Principles, the group members open up, share experiences, and explore hope. Participants become willing to accept God's grace in solving problems. While the participants grow spiritually, they become free of addictive, compulsive and disfunctional behaviors, and overcome hurts, habits, and hang-ups.

CENTRAL ARKANSAS  MASTER'S COMMISSION      
Master's Commission has one goal...."To know God and Make Him Known."

The program includes hands on discipleship training, which includes the Berean Study through Global University. JMC is a ministry like no other, it calls out our greatest potential and it transforms our character into the likeness of Christ. JMC is a 9 month intense discipleship training program for those out of High school. It's focus, to prepare the leader of tomorrow. A typical day in JMC begins with prayer, Bible study, and scripture memorization. After personal devotion time, course studies through Global University begin. On selected days of the week, students hear from church leaders on the practical issues of ministry. Afternoons and evenings are spent in ministry preparation for upcoming events or engaged in special outreach activities. JMC is not for the half hearted Christian but is for individuals who are ready to get closer to God. JMC is for those who desire to live a life of excellence and purpose. If you are ready for a new level of commitment, then the Jacksonville Master's Commission is the place for you! The original Masters Commission began in Phoenix Arizona in 1984 with 12 students and a dream, now it is a global movement. We are very excited to offer this ministry at McArthur Church.
