Spring City, Tennessee – RockHouse Ministries is transforming addiction recovery with a faith-based approach that emphasizes deliverance over lifelong addiction management. Through biblical discipleship, transitional housing, and national initiatives like Project 300, the ministry is proving that true freedom from addiction is possible through Jesus Christ.
The addiction crisis in America continues to grow, with millions struggling to break free from substance abuse. While traditional rehabilitation programs offer medical and psychological interventions, many fail to provide lasting solutions. RockHouse Ministries, based in Spring City, Tennessee, is disrupting this model with a faith-centered approach that rejects the idea of addiction as a permanent condition.
Founded by Pastor Jim Downs, RockHouse Ministries operates on the belief that true healing comes from spiritual renewal through Jesus Christ. Unlike secular recovery programs that rely on medication, therapy, and behavior modification, RockHouse Ministries preaches deliverance and restoration through biblical teachings, discipleship, and a supportive faith-based community.
“The world says addiction is a disease to be managed, but we know the truth—Jesus sets captives free. At RockHouse Ministries, we don’t just help people cope with addiction; we lead them to complete transformation,” said Pastor Jim Downs, Founder of RockHouse Ministries.
Faith-Based Recovery: A Solution That Works
RockHouse Ministries has developed a structured recovery program that incorporates daily Bible study, worship, and spiritual mentoring. The program is designed to address addiction at its root, treating it as a spiritual battle rather than a lifelong disease.
The ministry welcomes men and women from all walks of life, including those recently released from incarceration, individuals experiencing homelessness, and those who have been turned away by other rehabilitation centers. Participants receive:
- Biblical Discipleship – One-on-one mentoring and group sessions to instill biblical principles.
- Life Skills Training – Practical education and job readiness programs to support long-term stability.
- Transitional Housing – A safe and structured environment where individuals can rebuild their lives.
This approach has led to countless success stories, with former addicts experiencing not only sobriety but complete life transformation. The demand for RockHouse Ministries’ program continues to grow, underscoring the urgent need for faith-based addiction recovery solutions.
Challenging the Secular Recovery Industry
Many secular recovery programs operate under the assumption that addiction is a permanent condition requiring ongoing treatment, therapy, and medication. RockHouse Ministries directly challenges this narrative by proving that true freedom is possible through faith.
Unlike many rehabilitation centers that rely heavily on government funding—often with restrictions that limit faith-based teachings—RockHouse Ministries remains committed to its mission of sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ. While the ministry does accept government funding, it only accepts support that does not interfere with its ability to teach biblical principles. Primarily sustained through private donations and community support, RockHouse Ministries ensures that its faith-driven approach remains uncompromised.
“We refuse to accept any government funding that would limit our ability to teach about Jesus. The truth of the Gospel cannot be diluted, and our mission will not be compromised,” said Pastor Downs.
Project 300: A Nationwide Movement for Faith-Based Recovery
Beyond its local impact, RockHouse Ministries is taking its message nationwide through Project 300, a bold initiative designed to bring awareness to faith-based addiction recovery.
As part of this campaign, Pastor Jim Downs is traveling to 300 cities in a custom-built Chrysler 300 to share 300 testimonies of recovery through faith. Along the way, RockHouse Ministries is hosting recovery rallies, connecting with churches and organizations, and collecting real-life stories of transformation to inspire others.
The campaign aims to challenge the secular recovery industry, provide hope to those still struggling, and demonstrate that faith-based rehabilitation is a powerful and effective alternative. RockHouse Ministries is also developing a documentary that exposes the shortcomings of traditional rehabilitation programs while showcasing the transformative power of faith-based recovery. Through personal experiences and testimonies, the film aims to reach thousands nationwide, inspiring a movement toward spiritual healing and restoration.
