BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU LISTEN TO
“So take care how you listen; for whoever has, to him more shall be given; and whoever does not have, even what he thinks he has shall be taken away from him.” Luke 8:18 On the surface, these words of Jesus can sound unfair and even cruel. To understand what Jesus was saying, we must understand that
PREPARED TO BEAR MUCH FRUIT
None of the four soils addressed in Jesus’ parable of the Sower and the Seed bore abundant and lasting fruit, except the good soil. (Luke 8:11-15) In this article, I want to address the problem and the solution for the rocky soil. “Those on the rocky soil are those who, when they hear, receive the w
Our Humble King
Just as God is love and the only source of love, our God is also the one perfect source of humility. We must learn and receive humility from the Creator of the universe, the all-sovereign, all-powerful, all-knowing, eternal and completely humble One. For several months I have been reading and medita
But Who Do You Say I Am?
What a critical question Jesus asked His disciples, “But who do you say I am?” This question came immediately after Jesus had first asked, “Who do people say I am?” Matthew 16:13-19 (Emphasis mine)It was not enough for Jesus’ disciples to stand on the opinions of who the people thought Jesus was – n
LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF
This commandment, to love your neighbor as yourself, is second only to the commandment to love God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength. Matthew 22:36-40 and Mark 12:28-34Notice in the passages in Matthew and Mark referenced above, that these two great commandments “fulfill all of the law and
LAM Testimony: “We now have renewed hope!”

LAM Wife’s TestimonyComing into LAM, I didn’t know exactly how this workshop was going to be able to help our marriage. but after the first day, I had already felt an inner healing in myself.

LAM Testimony: “We were stuck in a negative cycle…”
We came stuck in non-productive communication with a negative cycle of being ok one minute to quickly feeling disconnected, anger, fear and internal shutdowns in our marriage, vision and life. I was still fearing leaving without a needed breakthrough and on the last day Brendon, Barry and Lori’s son
LAM Testimony: “We had been to many marriage conferences…”
“We have been to many marriage conferences/seminars/intensives. They have been good, and have had great tools, however, this time has revealed to us why we kept getting tripped up in some areas. The reconciliation was missing for us. Also, attaching past hurts and agreements made with the enemy. Hon
LAM Testimony: The tools helped us encounter healing and freedom!
“Came here hoping for tools to help my wife and I overcome conflicts and to get healed/delivered from issues in our life. We were there for 10 minutes at the workshop. It hadn’t even started yet, but we were chosen as group leaders and as we were waiting to receive our instructions, God downloaded s
LAM Testimony: “Lies we believed blocked our ability to move forward…”
“I wanted the Lord to show us the root cause of our being “stuck” as a couple. We have been unable to move forward or even hear what God has for us. I had accepted and agreed with the lie that things will never change. Also, I had settled or given up on our ability to initiate and follow through on
LAM Testimony: We Will Maintain With The Tools!

LAM Testimony: We got refocused!
“I came to LAM seeking help to improve our marriage. Our marriage had been a little rocky from some hurt that I had caused and ultimately from being distracted from God. This workshop helped us refocus on what God has for us and gave us practical tools to stay connected with the Holy Spirit and remi
LAM Testimony: Set free from childhood trauma!
“We came looking to learn how to become whole and break free from anything holding us back, so we can lead from a place of freedom, cultivating our unity and walking in the full authority Jesus gave us when He rose. I carried shame from being molested when I was young, which led to my curiosity arou
LAM Testimony: From Surviving to Thriving!
Our marriage had not gone well over time. My wife had suffered much before we met and once we married everything changed to protect her from me. Even when I did the right things it was not perceived that way. I survived this for about 12-15 years before breaking down. Over the last 2 years my wife h
LAM Testimony: “I was believing lies about myself…”
“Before coming I struggled with how I saw myself and it was affecting my marriage. I was believing lies about myself and it got in the way of being truly intimate with my husband both emotionally and sexually. Funny thing is, when we went over the topic of body image and releasing sexual freedom- I
LAM Testimony: “I can finally see my wife the way God sees her…”
“My wife and I have been married for 5 years. We’ve both had traumatic childhoods and struggled to be good parents and to have happiness, intimacy and connection with each other.

SLW Testimony: “I had been wanting a breakthrough in the area of identity…”
“I had been wanting a breakthrough in the area of identity for years and have received different levels of it through my time in different ministry schools, but I had lost hope in getting 100%. I didn’t even think of asking God for it when I got to SLW! But in the last few days, I have felt increasi
LAM Testimony: We have been given tools that actually work!
“Through LAM 1 and 2, my husband and I have been able to use these tools to have mutual language that makes sense, and that actually works to resolve issues. We have also both received a lot of breakthrough through using these tools like the 1-2-3 skidoo, the forgiveness tool, for things that we oth
SLW Testimony: Fear and Shame gone!
“For as long as I can remember I have prayed and dreamed for a healthy, fun, vibrant marriage for my future. I enrolled in Single Life Workshop because I had heard about the tools that were taught, which I thought would be of great use in preparation for this. I was carrying fear and shame when I st
