Thank you for visiting True Purpose!
We are a Jesus Christ-based, drug and alcohol Rehabilitation Program located in Knoxville, Tn. True Purpose is a 9 month in-patient, 3 month out-patient program that disciples addicts and alcoholics according to the word of God which transforms the habits and lifestyles of drug and alcohol addiction.We provide useful tools for reintegration back into society to be a hard-working, responsible, family focused Child of God. True Purpose has a vision to affect Knox and the surrounding counties by converting addicts and alcoholics to eventually change the communities and cities in Tennessee and other local states.
Our Vision:
To recover those bound by drugs and alcohol through the salvation experience of Jesus Christ, and disciple them through the Word of God, while training them to be Sons and Daughters of God to destroy the works of the enemy.
Our Mission Statement:
I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me. (John 5:30)
What is your True Purpose here on this earth? Is it to have a needle in your arm, trying to maintain what life you have left so that you will not get dope sick? Is it to walk in depression and unhappiness for the rest of your life? Are we created to steal from our family and friends where we find ourselves in jail for lengths of time until we get out and repeat the cycle? We can even be earning a huge amount of money that produces a form of happiness, but is it what we were put on earth to do?
John 10:10 says that Satan has come to steal, kill and destroy.....but Jesus has come that we may have the life from God, and have it more abundantly. We all have a purpose and calling to affect the world around us on a personal and corporate level with the gospel of Jesus Christ and His Kingdom here on this earth. We need to realize that we have a Heavenly Father that loves us and wants to adopt us into His family, while showing us our inheritance as Sons and Daughters of God. You are loved and Jesus has your own personal purpose and calling in him. Some are called to foreign countries, some are to preach, while some are called to minister to the hurting in their workplace, etc. Each calling is equally important and we believe that you will find it in your relationship with Jesus.
Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired. Do you feel at times that you are just like the gentleman in this picture where you do not know if you can make it any longer? Rev. 3:20 says,Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. Jesus is standing at the door of our hearts and He is knocking to come in and change our life for the better. It is our choice however, to let him in. He will not force his way into our lives like an unwanted guest. John 3:16 says that God loves us so much that he sent his only Son Jesus to die on the cross for our sins and faults so that we can not only receive the free gift of heaven, but that we may also have the life that was intended for us before the world began. All you have to do is to admit that you have sinned, admit that Jesus came, died on the cross, and was resurrected. Then receive him into your heart and ask him to be the Lord over your life. Jesus says in John 3:3-5 that when we do this, we are spiritually born again and we become a brand new person in Him.You are no longer that addict, alcoholic,mean, angry,etc, person you used to be. 2 Cor. 5:17 says, If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature, old things have past away, behold all things have become new.It all starts with a simple decision to receive Jesus into your life to make him your God and Saviour.
