2B FREE Ministries

2B FREE is a ministry designed to help hurting people break free from the chains of addiction. We believe the Bible is the Word of God and gives clear answers on the nature of addiction and how to overcome its grasp through Jesus Christ. 2B FREE is led by compassionate Christians who will speak the truth of God’s Word in love and help you confront your addiction so that you can live the life God intended.

2B FREE meets every Thursday from 6:00 pm to 7:30 p.m., starting March 5, 2026. Along with challenges from the Word of God, we will study The Heart of Addiction by Mark Shaw. Sessions will be conducted in large and small group format with a time of casual talk and snacks at the end. Accountability is a huge part of confronting addiction, so we have a group of trusted Christian people to come alongside you for encouragement.

There is no charge to attend 2B FREE. If child care is needed while attending sessions, please contact us through our contact page or by telephone. If you have any other questions, please reach out to us.

If you would like to give towards the cost of operating 2B FREE, you may mail a check to Deer River Bible Church (P.O. Box 645, Deer River, MN 56636) or give electronically on this site.
