The Religion, Spirituality and
Addiction Page
This site is being developed as a one-stop-shop
for information about Religion, Spirituality, and Addiction.
It is hoped that this site will become a primary resource for
individuals interested in research and practical information on
relationships between Religion/Spirituality and Addiction/Recovery.
In addition to research findings, the site will contain web-links,
reviews of books and media, information for clergy and
congregations, and other resources for professionals, family,
persons in recovery, and clergy. Work on the site has just
begun as of November, 2006, and we anticipate that it will take
several months for the site to be fully populated.
Keep checking back for more information!
