Peak-A-Boo

Yep! That's me. The guy who keeps Greene Street Letters up

and running.

I just wanted to leave a little note for those of you

who stop by here occasionally to check us out.

My name: Michael Bynum

Married to Vicki Bynum (37+ years...happily I might add)

I serve as Chaplin/ Pastor/ Counselor/ and

whatever else may need doing

at Rapha Ministries.

What's a "Rapha Ministries?"

It is Alabama's largest faith-based drug and alcohol program.

We believe that people don't have drug/alcohol problems....

they have a living problem.
They have a broken relationship with Jesus Christ.

This broken relationship manifests in a number of ways

as the inability to cope with life, or the refusal to cope which

drives people to seek comfort or escape in the "substance of choice."

We do not claim to have any magic answers, magic bullets

or magic whiffle sobriety dust.
We simply believe that getting rigorously honest with ones self

and allowing God to work is the answer.

The big book of AA states that "rarely have we seen anyone fail

who thoroughly followed our path (or the steps of recovery)"

We have found that Jesus can do for us what we could not do

for ourselves.

Our sin nature (flesh or whatever you choose to call it) causes

someone in addiction to seek the easier, softer way.

There isn't one that leads to freedom from addiction.

What I write here on the GREENE STREET LETTERS

is applicable to all

but specific for those who are either in recovery or looking

for answers to leave their addiction.

I hope to download some music and the message from our

Saturday night meetings here at the

Church@Rapha

Feel free to listen or download for yourself.

Please don't hesitate to send an Email or comment here

on the blog page. We'd love to hear from you.

Freedom from addiction begins with a very simple fact.

The desire to quit....

Why not today?

God on you.......

Michael Bynum
