Give the people you serve something to hold on to between Sundays.
Unshackled Recovery is a Christ-centered workbook that walks someone struggling with addiction from surviving to freedom — grounded in Scripture, informed by neuroscience, and built to work alongside the ministry you already offer.
You're already doing the hardest part — showing up for them.
Your people hear the truth on Sunday and in group. But the real work of freedom happens on a Tuesday night, alone, when an old pattern feels easier to reach for. Unshackled Recovery puts a guide in their hands for those moments — so what you teach keeps working all week long.
Between meetings
Daily Scripture, reflection, and practical steps they can work through on their own, at their own pace.
Honest, private space
Room to write what they may not be ready to say out loud yet — the first step toward bringing it into the light.
A clear path forward
A structured journey your leaders can follow with them, so no one is left guessing what comes next.
Four pillars. One way forward.
Every section is built on the same simple progression, so it's easy for a participant to follow and easy for a leader to guide.
Faith
“What does God say?”
Every step starts with who God says they are — not with what they've done.
Reveal
“What is actually happening in my life?”
Honest reflection on the triggers, patterns, and pain underneath the habit.
Rewire
“What belief or pattern needs to change?”
Replacing old beliefs with truth, and practicing a new response until it becomes the familiar one.
Practice
“What am I going to do differently?”
Daily, practical steps that turn freedom into a way of living.
Scripture called it renewing the mind long before science had a word for it.
Research shows that repeated thoughts and behaviors make familiar patterns easier to reach for — and that change comes from practicing a different response until it becomes the new familiar. Unshackled Recovery pairs that understanding with the truth of God's Word, so your people understand why they're stuck and how freedom takes root.
“Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.”
It works alongside what you already do.
No new program to launch. No curriculum to replace. Hand it to the people you're already walking with.
Recovery groups & small groups
Everyone works the same pages during the week and comes ready to share.
Mentoring & discipleship
A shared roadmap for sponsors, mentors, and accountability partners to follow one-on-one.
Pastoral care & counseling
Something meaningful to place in someone's hands the moment they ask for help.
Residential, outreach & reentry programs
A personal copy for every resident or participant — theirs to write in and keep.
Written from lived experience, not theory.
Unshackled Recovery grew out of my own testimony — and a conviction that no one should have to find their way to freedom alone. Your church is already the place people turn to. I want to put one more tool in your hands.
“Something had already changed in me. I was praying differently—with intention and the expectation of an answer. I began thinking less about alcohol and more about my life, realizing I had a future worth fighting for. Michelle’s empathetic and inspired work gave me the most valuable possession I could have ever imagined—HOPE.”
The more lives you reach, the more you save.

What ministry leaders ask first
Is it tied to a specific denomination?
No. It's non-denominational and unapologetically Christ-centered, built on core truths shared across Bible-believing churches. Scripture is quoted from the NIV.
Will it compete with the recovery program we already run?
It's designed to sit alongside it. Many ministries use it as the between-meetings companion to the group, step program, or class they already have in place.
Does it replace medical or professional treatment?
No — and it isn't meant to. It's a faith-based resource for spiritual and personal growth. Anyone facing withdrawal or a medical or mental health crisis should also be connected with qualified care.
Can someone use it on their own, without a group?
Yes. It's fully self-guided, which makes it just as useful for one-on-one care as it is for groups.
Can we see it before ordering in bulk?
Absolutely. Request a sample copy using the form above and review it with your leadership team first.
Can we return copies we don’t use?
Every workbook is printed to order specifically for your ministry, so bulk orders of 10 or more copies are final sale and can’t be returned or refunded. If any copies arrive damaged or with a printing defect, email us within 30 days of delivery with a photo and we’ll replace them at no cost. Not sure yet? Request a free sample copy and review it with your team before you order.
How long does shipping take?
Most bulk orders arrive within 10-14 business days. Need copies by a specific date for a launch or retreat? Let us know in your request.
“So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.”
