RESTORED:

From Wounds to Wisdom

Start Healing from Harmful Relationships & Holding Biblical Boundaries

I invite you to participate in RESTORED, the companion study to my book Restoring the Years the Locusts Have Eaten. This study explores freedom in Christ in the context of abusive and other sinful relationships.

While some people are outright abusive and harmful to us, others are simply toxic, negatively impacting our hearts and minds. Both can impede our faith and damage our relationship with Jesus. This study covers both healing from abuse and how to biblically manage close-proximity relationships with those who continue in ongoing, unrepentant, sinful behavior.

In my exploration of God’s Word, I find language of running races and winning battles; power-filled metaphors given to equip us for a victorious Christian walk. I want to encourage others to decipher between the ingrained church culture and biblical truth.
Many of us have been fed the lie that to be Christ-like, we must be weak, passive doormats for unrepentant family members at best, or victims of predators at worst. Boundaries and personal autonomy are absolutely Biblical!
This material is best suited for those who are:
  • Devoted to cultivating a deeper relationship with Jesus.
  • Committed to exploring God’s Word, and open to unlearning lies and false doctrine.
  • In a group setting: Able to maturely and respectfully explore challenging theological points with others with a mutual expectation of accountability, privacy, and grace.
  • Leaders should possess a fullness of peace such that disagreement does not turn into discord. Disagreement does not diminish one’s opinion; it merely points to our humanity and the reality that not a single one of us is always correct. Agree to disagree and move on to the next point of discussion.
  • Leaders should be dedicated to their own healing so that they can help others grow in their faith and heal from abuse and trauma.
