45% of Church Leaders Admit to Sexual Immorality.

The cure is not accountability software or shame. We’ve worked with and mentored over 60 couples in the past 5 years, and here’s what we’ve discovered works best: The cure is PURSUIT. When a man daily pursues his wife with Love, Affection, and Spiritual Leadership, he starves temptation— and fuels EPIC Intimacy in his marriage.

The Value of Our Response

After 11 years with kids in the “System” and 5 years walking with the Amish, one truth has become undeniable: The deepest trauma rarely comes from the behavior itself… it comes from the response to the behavior. A parent’s response. A sibling’s response. A teacher’s, a pastor’s, a community’s response. That moment of reaction doesn’t just correct behavior — it cements belief. • When the response is shaming, harsh, or rejecting → the belief becomes, “I’m bad. I’ll never be enough.” • When the response is steady, compassionate, and curious → the belief becomes, “I can grow. I’m still worthy. I’m loved.” Psychologically, it’s the response that shapes the story we carry into adulthood — the story about who we are, what we’re worth, and whether we belong. Our responses matter more than we think. Because they don’t just end a moment… they echo for a lifetime. *Is there a response you’ve experienced that caused a harmful belief about yourself? Please share🫶🏽 #ThePowerOfResponse #EpicYourLife #HealingGenerations #flipthescript #createanewstory #mindset #personalgrowth #amish #amishmatcmakers #fostercare #fosterkids #trauma #response

❤️‍🩹Just like a physical injury, triggers need care.

When you get hurt physically, you don’t just slap a band-aid on and ignore it. You pause, identify where the pain came from, what caused it, and then you step into healing — slowly, intentionally, and with gentleness. It’s the same with emotional wounds. A trigger points us back to an old injury. First, we identify the real issue and where it started. Then we begin the healing process: forgiveness, grace, gentleness toward ourselves and others. And just like rebuilding strength after an injury, healing isn’t complete without movement. The mindset work. Choosing to move forward in ways that make us stronger, creating a new story, a new experience. The trigger doesn’t have to keep defining you. It can be the signal that your healing is ready to go deeper. #Healing #TriggersToTriumph #EpicYourLife #intentional #mindset #lens #amish #amishmatchmakers #marriage #life #personalgrowth

Verse and letter back

But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display his immense patience as an example for those who would believe in him and receive eternal life. 1Timothy 1:16 My precious daughter Phyllis, I see you; the weight you carry, the pain you feel, the people you lift before Me in prayer. Every name you whispered, every situation you described, I am already present in each one. Nothing you entrust to Me is ever wasted. Your heart for family, for friends, and even for strangers battling pain or sickness reflects My own. You may feel tired or limited right now, but your intercession is powerful. You are standing in the gap for so many, and I hear you. I know your body hurts, and your shoulder feels frozen. I am with you in the healing process. Healing may be slow, but do not mistake slow for absent. I am working even when you don’t see immediate results. Lean on Me as you modify your therapy, move gently, and give your body grace to recover. I also see your hopes for John; your desire for him to become responsible, organized, and free. Trust that I am forming his character through these challenges. His space may be small, but My plans for him are not. Release him to Me daily. Your prayers are a covering over him even when your words don’t reach him. And for you, My daughter, the longing you have to make your home more peaceful, to simplify, to begin anew ; I am making a way. One step at a time, one small act of order, one surrendered moment will create space for My peace to dwell more fully. Here is My word for you today: “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” —Psalm 34:18 Even when your body aches or your heart feels weary, I am close. My patience and mercy that you read about in 1 Timothy 1:16 are the same patience and mercy I pour over you now. You are not behind. You are not forgotten. You are My example of perseverance and love. Rest in Me tonight, beloved. My grace is enough for you.
