WHAT IS RENEWAL RANCH?

Renewal Ranch is a faith based residential addiction recovery program for men ages 21 and older. It is located on 116 acres near Conway, Arkansas. Founded on the belief that addiction is a spiritually rooted issue, Renewal Ranch is on the front line of a battle against the addiction crisis that is gripping our nation. 

 

Renewal Ranch residents are shepherded and loved through three distinct phases of the Renewal Ranch program. This 12-month program includes counseling, teaching, Bible study, work, and volunteer service.

 

Residents are given the opportunity to develop a personal love relationship with Jesus Christ, and that changes everything! Through this relationship, they can find freedom from the chains of addiction, forgiveness from their past, and hope for their future.

 

We have seen countless lives changed through the Renewal Ranch ministry.

 

A remarkable number of men are rescued from the bonds of addiction while at Renewal Ranch. Over 60 percent of the men accepted into our program successfully graduate after approximately one year.

 

Traditional secular addiction abuse and recovery programs have a comparatively small rate of rehabilitation. According to various studies and reports, less than five percent of participants in secular programs are able to achieve long-term sobriety. 


 

We believe the promise of 2 Corinthians 5:17 to every resident: 

“This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. 

The old life is gone; a new life has begun!”
