Celebrate Recovery Small Group Guidelines

    1. Keep your sharing focused on your own thoughts and feelings, using “I”
    and “me” statements. Limit your sharing to three to five minutes.
    2. There is no cross-talk. Cross-talk is when two individuals engage in
    conversations excluding all others. Each person is free to express his or
    her feelings without interruptions.
    3. We are here to support one another, not “fix” one another. This keeps us
    focused on our own issues.
    4. Anonymity and confidentiality are basic requirements. What is shared in
    the group stays in the group. The only exception is when someone
    threatens to injure themselves or others.
    5. Offensive language has no place in a Christ-centered recovery group.
