The Genesis Process

What is the GENESIS PROCESS?

The Brain in the Bible and Healing Self-Destructive (addictive) Behavior

For the first time in history we actually understand not only what is broken, but also what it takes to help those who have continued a self-destructive/addictive behavior even to the point of losing everything.

The mystery is:

"Why are we the only creatures in the observable universe that will continue to do self destructive behavior in spite of the consequences"? "Why do we do the very things we don't want to do" (Romans 7)? We will continue to over eat, over work, over drink and drug, over stress and over sex ourselves, even to the point of death and not stop. Even an ant is smarter than that.

The Genesis Process provides both a Biblically and neuro-chemically understanding of what is broken that causes us to be self destructive. If we don't first understand what is broken how can we devise a recovery plan that really works.

The Bottom Line is:

Addiction is a brain disease that is usually the result of a long series of bad choices, just like many other diseases. These bad choices are what the Bible calls sin. When the brain becomes diseased, it creates false survival cravings for things that are harmful to us. This is a form of insanity. So if you want to be free of addiction you have to heal (change) the brain from producing these self-destructive cravings. If you can reduce or eliminate cravings you can prevent relapse.

The place in the brain that is damaged is mostly what the Bible calls the Heart. The Genesis Process is a practical program to bring about heart change that last.

 

If you want to change behavior you have to change the HEART
