Reading the reviews here makes me think of the story of the woman caught in adultry and Jesus comments, those of you without sin cast the first stone. I worship with life-changers in Beckley W Va, and my wife holds a bible study with the women once a week so I am very familiar with the organization in Beckley W VA. First yes there are hurdles in this program that need to be overcome BUT if it where not for the fact that this program is free to any client that needs help and can not afford $8,000 to$40,000 for one of the other alternatives or get no help at all. I have seen personally a friend's life saved by Life Changers. This persons partner did die from and overdose and this person I am sure would have died also had they not entered this program stayed the full year and with God's help is a New person now helping others out of addiction. So everyone who leaves the program wants to blame the organization and that is a first indication why they failed in the program because the first step to recovery in any addiction is to take personal responsibility To see especially the ladies worship the Lord knowing that it is the Lord only that delivered them from addiction is exciting and it is real. Show me a program dealing with disfunctional lifestyles that are problem free it just does not exist. Those that just couldn't cut the mustard in the program need to leave those that rough it out alone problems and all.
