Testimonials

Best Investment

This seminar was the best investment of time I have made recently, and I can recommend this session to other parents without hesitation.

Great Understanding

Great understanding of the pressures my child may be facing, how he may seek relief from pain, and how I can be aware and come alongside if destructive behaviors take over his life.

Wonderful Message

This is the beginning of the spread of a powerful, wonderful message, not just for folks in the middle of dangerous addiction, but even for the parent who does not fear this for their child.

So Much Insight

Highly recommend this to everyone - so much insight and great information regarding addiction and the heart journey for all those touched by addiction

Practical Wisdom

Steve leads his talk from a position of brokenness and humility. He imports practical wisdom and insights from his life experience.

Extremely Helpful

Steve sharing his family’s story with such honesty and humility was a true blessing to me. The information on how to parent in such a way as to hopefully prevent our children from going down this path of addiction was extremely helpful!

So relatable

This seminar helped me by giving me insight for my son, and Steve’s personal examples made it so relatable. Thank you for sharing from your heart.

Helpful Seminar

It would be a helpful seminar for a parent in any stage of their children’s lives. I appreciated the challenge, the encouragement, and the practical help.

Loved it

Loved the orientation toward grace and the personal stories related to the material. Thank you for caring enough to share your story to help others.

Excellent Material

Excellent specific material. Love the focus on the positives that prevent and build the life we would want. Loved the willingness to share your heart - was touched by your tears. Loved the honesty and the material that showed value of the difficult journey.

Informative and Practical

It was very informative and practical. It gave me a lot to think about and intentional ways to be a better parent.

We’ve Been There - We Can Help

“I’m Steve Ward, and I’m an alcoholic. So is my wife, and our son had issues with drugs and alcohol when he was younger. I’ve been where you or people you know are, and I know it’s hard, sometimes seeming hopeless.

But I learned addiction is not only treatable, it’s preventable! And that a recovery-informed lifestyle can help anyone become resilient and content. That, most of all, God is good, and he can help us get through.

Now, after many years of research on what the experts and millions of people say works, we have captured proven steps that can change your life for the better.”

– Steve Ward, Founder and Executive Director of STEPS

From our blog

Terrell is a nice-looking 15-year-old with a glint in his eye and a quick wit. He comes across as sharp and interesting as he talks about his ideas and dreams. But that first impression is the tip of an iceberg that is much different beneath the surface.

What part of your life do you worry about? That brings sadness? Or makes you feel frustrated, lonely, or hopeless? Which of your numbing-to-escape habits makes life worse rather than better? What negative thoughts haunt you at night?

Is it okay to drink alcohol? Yes, it is okay. As long as you read the rest of this article and thoughtfully consider all it says.
