Drug addiction has been a problem that has been plaguing the young adults all over the world and the United States in particular. It is a common scenario among addicts that for a few months after going through a detoxification and rehabilitation program he stays clean of drugs. But at the occurrence of any incident in his life that causes stress on his mind, he returns to taking drugs and falls back into the clutches of addiction again. This leads him to question the efficacy and reliability of the conventional drug rehab programs and makes him stay away from any future rehabilitation program. It is because of this reason that the new method of addiction treatment, known as Christian Drug rehab programs have grown in popularity. Here, the treatment is based on the faith of the patient in God or an omnipotent supreme power.

Faith in something that is personal to every living being. One may or may not believe in God as we know him, but he or she may believe in the presence of a supreme power, an omniscient entity. Whatever one's faith may be based on, it can do wonders for him when he strays from the path of life by taking drugs and alcohol, leading to an addiction. This faith, if stimulated properly, can help him realize his mistake and return to the right path and stay clean of the addictives. Christian drug and alcohol rehab programs have emerged as an effective way of combating the unhealthy and destructive attraction of addictives like drugs and alcohol. A specialized treatment, based on cultivating the spiritual nature in man, it has been found to be an effective and persistent solution for drug and alcohol addiction and not only does it help the addicts get clean, but also instills a new found sense of self respect, responsibility, love and compassion for friends and family.

Even when all hope seems lost, the person's faith in almighty can become his only ray of hope in the darkness of his addiction, his only anchor in the midst of the rough sea of his life, hanging on to which he can save the sinking ship of his life. Christian faith based drug treatment facilities help their patients based on the same principles. They open the eyes of an addict to the strength and boundless power of their faith. And with the support of this faith, they make the addicts realize how they have lost their way due to their addiction to drugs and alcohol and how it adversely affects both the addicts and their families. The faith based treatment facilities use the spiritual outlook of the addict to help the addict see his actual self and identify whatever inner disturbance might be leading to the addiction and then goes about curing that.

Thus, after going through a Christian drug rehab program, the addict mostly do not go back to doing drugs again and lead a healthy and peaceful life.
