My Core Values
- Maturity is a process that never ends.
- Everyone requires mutual encouragement in a community of believers.
- Everyone has love-ability.
- Open communication builds community and self-awareness.
- Stepping out in obedience changes lives.
- Trauma and shame recovery is possible.
- All things are possible through Christ, Who strengthens us.
- No one is disposable or marginable.
- Everyone has a gift to share.
- Godly unique genuineness is desirable.
- We use the love and gifts God gives us to empower others.
- We require regular refilling of the Holy Spirit.
My Core Purpose
- To walk with women through the process of shame recovery.
- Acknowledging the devastation personal and generational shame and/or trauma causes on a woman’s life.
- Sharing stories of personal recovery through God’s redemptive love, without increasing shame often felt by those who feel inadequate of God’s love and/or increasing anger for years of anguish.
- Through steps and progression walk with wounded women so they too can walk with other wounded women – teaching the teachers.
- Empower women to walk in the identity created for them through Christ’s sacrifice while stepping out of the shame/trauma cycle.
