<![CDATA[Drug rehabilitation efforts often rely on medical or psychological approaches, which may overlook the spiritual dimension of recovery emphasized by faith-based institutions. This study aims to determine the influence of Christian Therapeutic Mentoring on Residents' Behavioral Change based on 2 Corinthians 5:17 at Yayasan Breakthrough Missions Indonesia (YBMI), a Christian drug rehabilitation center in Sentul, Bogor. This study employed a quantitative approach with a descriptive-correlational method. The population consisted of all active residents of YBMI, and a saturated sampling technique was used, involving all 21 residents as respondents. Data were collected through a Likert-scale questionnaire consisting of 15 items for each variable and analyzed using validity, reliability, classical assumption, and simple linear regression tests. The results showed that 14 of 15 items on the independent variable and all items on the dependent variable were valid, with both variables demonstrating very high reliability. The regression analysis produced the equation Ŷ = 16.271 + 0.774X with a coefficient of determination of 0.745, and the t-test showed a significant influence (t = 7.441 > t-table 2.093; p = 0.000). These findings conclude that Christian Therapeutic Mentoring contributed 74.5% to residents' behavioral change, and that mentoring integrated with Bible-based spiritual formation plays an important role in supporting residents' renewal toward becoming a new creation in Christ]]>
