PURITY WEEKENDS
We offer a couple different weekends for churches wanting to bring to light the pandemic of sexual addiction. We feel that God has given us a directive of readying the church for the harvest but as it stands right now, the church receiving the harvest would look more like a drowning man trying to save a drowning man.
FOUR STORIES
One of the main thrusts is to share FOUR STORIES. One of a man who was a sex, love and porn addict for 35 years. That would be the store of Reese, in which you can read a synopsis of his story here. Another story is that of a betrayed spouse. Reese's ex-wife, Sharon. Hear her story and see how God gave her the ability to forgive Reese and work hand in hand, preferring each other to raise their amazing children together, even though living very separate lives. The third story is that of the affair partner, Wendy; now Reese's wife. Hear her story of brokenness, depression, suicide attempts and finding God's grace after crossing a line she vowed never to cross because she loved God with all her heart. Three very broken lives, healed and healing still as God's grace reaches deep into all three hearts to continue to remove everything that would separate them from God's love and breathe new life daily. All three are in regular relationship with each other, even including Sharon's new husband, Tim. Tim's is the 4th story. Time walked into this mess...willingly. :) Tim shares his story as being the only one who actually came from a broken household where his parents divorced after he was in his 20s. He still felt it was his fault. Tim struggled with porn a little when he was younger but it was never his major issue. Still he had to learn to live alone for nearly 50 years until he and Sharon married. He is an incredible man who shares his story of being a step-father, entering into a marriage scenario where he had already known Reese for 20 years and was good friends with him. Learn also how Reese prayed for Sharon to find that godly man who would deeply love and appreciate her as well as Reese's children. Reese couldn't imagine another man so suited by God to take that role. he is a major blessing and a great church leader.
Both couples enjoy time together as it involves the children, mainly, but also have been reconciled and healed to the point where the past is the past and the desire to show this great love of God to others is the future.
These weekends usually involve separate meetings of men and women. Individual prayer and ministry is offered to each person who desires to connect with God and find their own freedom in HIm. If interested in booking a FOUR STORIES weekend, please visit our CONTACT PAGE!

RESTORING ROYALTY, READYING OURSELVES FOR THE HARVEST
Restoring Royalty weekends are a bit deeper into scripture, revealing how mankind has been subdued by sexal sin. This ministry comes from a vision/picture that we believe God gave s regarding His royalty in the Kingdom. Both men and women have abdicated their throne in the heavenlies, where it is said in Ephesians 3, that we are seated with Christ. Scriptures from Revelation 3 - let no man take your crown, as well as a historical approach from Scripture about how sexual sin has drawn people away from God. We talk about strengthening the nets (like the disciples who were fishermen), so that we can bring in the huge harvest of souls. We cannot effectively walk in the power God has given us, while we spend our lives holding back from God this area of sexual sin. We bring an actual sword to knight people who determine in their heart that they wish to be restored to that place in the heavenlies and rule and reign with Christ, over their body, over their family, community, jobs, etc, in a broken humble place of servanthood to see God's glory established. We also share our stories but in a sense of relating it to Scripture and how God is doing this in our own lives. We also can lead worship or have a church worship team do so.
WHAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN?
Children are our most valuable resources in this world. To pour into them is of great concern to us. There is nothing so embarrassing as having that "talk" with our children regarding sexuality. We'd rather leave it to the schools. However the schools are showing they are not prepared to integrate their health class version of sexuality with the ravages of pornography, sexting, revenge porn, deep-fake porn (swapping faces to put them on porn start bodies, virtual reality porn (a real threat!!!) The time to start talking to your young children is NOW! We cannot wait and they need the safety of your relationship to be the atmosphere in which they learn what is right and what is wrong. We do book readings and workshops where parents and children sit for a reading of "Good Pictures, Bad Pictures." Time is given at the end of each chapter to talk about what was just read. This gives everyone a larger community in which to learn how to talk to your children about pornopgraphy so it doesn't feel so chaotic or apprehensive. This can be added onto a Saturday afternoon!
PASTORS/CHURCH LEADERSHIP
It is our heart to see the body of Christ moving in unity, seamless, allowing each part to do its work as we release the Kingdom of God into our families, communities, etc. It is so important that pastors know, we love, support and believe in you. We want to help you come together with host churches to create momentum and invite your church to join in on this very important weekend. We believe that if churches in a region will coalesce and get behind this threat, we can make a bigger difference and create real loving accountability from a community standpoint. Sex addiction isolates church leadership from the church members as well as their own families. We can no longer turn a blind eye to this devastating "cancer" in the body of Christ. We must no longer hide behind our denominations but unify as one body, loving each other, serving each other, supporting one another through this immense fight that so many people are in at this time. We cannot discard people because of this sin. Most of the time this happens, it is because of a feeling of betrayal and then the question is asked, "well what do we do now?" It is God's kindness that leads us to repentance. We must show kindness, long suffering, patience, prayer, and a whole host of other Christ-like qualities to see those who are broken find wholeness in Christ.
