We understand that finding faith in Jesus Christ alters the behavior and instills positive values that allow the entire person to heal. Teen Challenge firmly believes, and results show, that an addict must establish a personal relationship with Jesus Christ if he wishes to find permanent freedom from the bondage of addictions and/or life-controlling habits. This central spiritual dynamic is the foundation upon which all aspects of the Teen Challenge program are built.
