Gerry Brown

Founder and President U-Turn For Christ - Gold Hill

Pastor Gerry Brown comes from a family of fifteen brothers and sisters, and is therefore family oriented. After many years of struggling with the sin of addiction, finding himself in divorce court with a Judge warning him that he was about to ruin his life, he agreed to do whatever his lovely wife Peggy wanted for him to get his family back. Peggy’s one requirement was for Gerry to attend church with her. Gerry agreed, not realizing God would get a hold of his heart and change his life forever. That was over twenty years ago. Today he is the Senior Pastor of Calvary Chapel Romoland and also the founder and President of U-Turn For Christ. His unique shoot-from-the-hip style of teaching gets right to the heart of the matter, and the meat of the Word. His powerfully unique style of delivering God’s Word will both challenge and encourage you to new levels of maturity in your walk with Jesus, as we draw from God’s design for living, and discover new insights to God’s “Truth and Love in Action”.

Locating Allentown Rehabilitation Programs
Are you looking for a private drug rehab in Allentown? Given the difficulties the state is experiencing in providing funding for public rehabilitation programs in Pennsylvania, choosing private addiction treatment is a smart move on your part. You have so much to choose from and few limitations. In fact, when you opt for private treatment, you improve your chances of success in recovery because you are accessing a more comprehensive treatment program.

A Guide to Entering a Treatment Clinic

The Pennsylvania state government isn’t the only one having a problem funding drug addiction treatment. It’s a tough economy and families often find it difficult to come up with the money to pay for private drug rehab out of pocket. Many have health insurance policies that will cover some of the cost – in fact, in many states, it is mandatory for health insurance providers to cover certain services or portions of the treatment cost. However, even that may not be enough to make treatment affordable.

There are often companies who work with different drug rehabs to provide families with the information and financial assistance they need to pay for treatment immediately and pay back the cost of care at a rate that is appropriate to their budget.

Seek Recovery Centers in Allentown

Private drug rehab in Allentown is within the grasp of almost every family in Pennsylvania. It’s important, however, for loved ones with addicted family members to take the time to research their options and make sure that they opt for a treatment program that will best suit their needs. The better the fit for your addicted loved one, the more likely he or she will be to get the best possible care during treatment and the right level of support when it’s time to return home.
