How long are you willing to live something less than the kind of abundant life that was purchased for you at the cross of Christ? Isnt it time to conquer those hurts and failures that have distracted your attention from the face of God and placed you under the control of lies that continue to lead you away from Him?

Healing the Wounded Heart provides a simple and biblical approach of eliminating the obstacles that prevent you from intimacy with God and people. These obstacles include:

• Fear
• Rejection
• Worthlessness
• Shame
• Insecurity
• Defilement
• Hopelessness

You were created for the love of God in Christ Jesus to live a life in His presence. He has provided a way to destroy the negative influences that distract your face from His. Healing the Wounded Heart provides a gentle, presence-driven approach to discover what negative influences control you, when they are triggered where they came from, and the truth that destroys the power of demonic and destructive lies we have come to believe.

Healing the Wounded Heart also includes a Personal Ministry Guide to help you apply the truth to your own life and find greater freedom in the presence of the living Christ. This experience will allow you to forgive out of compassion, uncover and break the promises you made to yourself at a time of wounding, and remove demonic strongholds in your life and your family.
