Renewal Ranch

Renewal Ranch is a 12-month program. Six months in Phase I and six months in Phase II with a graduation celebration after completing each phase.  During this time residents will be given the opportunity to develop a personal love relationship with Jesus Christ.  Through this relationship they can find freedom from the chains of addiction, forgiveness from their past and hope for their future.  We claim the promise of 2 Corinthians 5:17 for every resident:  “This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!”

Residents are required to live on campus during the first 6 months of the program called Phase I.  They will be housed, fed and administered to at no cost – Jesus Christ has already paid the price.  Phase II is 6 months and consists of group meetings/Bible studies several times a week, attendance at Chapel on Saturday, local church attendance on Sunday and weekly meeting with mentor.  The key to success in Phase II is participating and remaining involved with RR.

The program consists of five components:

A- An atmosphere of love by volunteers and staff, attempting to mirror the love of God.

B- Intensive Bible study taught by local pastors, teachers, and staff.  A schedule of classes and description of the Bible studies are given elsewhere on the website.  Scripture memorization accompanies these studies.

C- Camaraderie with fellow residents who are on the same journey and who serve as accountability partners.

D- Spiritual discipline through prayer, Bible reading, and meditation as well as self-discipline that comes with serving other residents and being a member of the Renewal Ranch team.

E- Serving others through community work projects and jobs in the bunk house.

Our Goals

We desire to see these attitudes develop in the men during Phase I and for the men to exhibit these characteristics in their lives during Phase II and beyond:

* A willingness to be held accountable

* Honesty and Transparency

* Dependence on the Holy Spirit

* Readiness to forgive others and themselves

* Spiritual Growth

* An attitude of service
