Small Group Guidelines

- Keep your sharing focused on your own thoughts and feelings. Limit your sharing to three to five minutes.

- There will be NO cross talk. Cross talk is when two individuals engage in conversation, excluding all others. Each person is free to express his or her feelings without interruptions.

- We are here to support one another, not “fix” one another.

- 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.

- Offensive language has no place in a Christ-centered recovery group.
