In 2008, God spoke to my heart that He wanted to see His people restored back to the original condition of His creation. St. Paul in 1ST Thessalonians 5:23-24 conveys God’s desire: “May God Himself, the God who makes everything holy & whole, make you holy & whole, put you together—spirit, soul, and body—and keep you fit for the coming of our Master, Jesus Christ. The One who called you is completely dependable. If He said it, He’ll do it!” (MSG)
As a result, the Pathways to Wholeness Seminar and the work of Restoration Christian was birthed!
The Pathways to Wholeness Seminar is a Ten Lesson discipleship study based on the truth of God’s Word. As a participant applies the Biblical principles taught, they are able to enjoy better health as they receive insight into the root of many diseases; obtain financial freedom once they learn what is influencing decisions; and will learn to live a peaceful life free from stress, fear, rejection and bitterness which results in a better relationship with God, their families and friends! An added benefit are new tools acquired to walk it out daily in the full power of God!
Pathways to Wholeness Seminar Lessons 1 – 6: Forgiveness, foundational truths, thinking correctly according to the Word of God, and preparing for the Day of Restoration, Healing and Freedom.
After Lesson 6, we have a Day of Restoration, Healing and Freedom – a full Day of Ministry – based on Nehemiah 9:1-3: “When the Israelites assembled on the twenty-fourth day of this month, they fasted, wore sackcloth, and threw dirt on their heads. Those who were descendants of Israel separated themselves from all foreigners. They stood and confessed their sins as well as the wicked things their ancestors had done. They stood in their places, and for one-fourth of the day, they listened as the Book of the Teachings of the Lord their God was read, and for another fourth of the day, they confessed their sins and worshiped the Lord their God.” (GWT) Just as they did in the days of Nehemiah, on the Day of Ministry we spend the day: reading the Word; recognizing the roots of ungodly influences; confessing our sins and the iniquities of the generations before us; taking legal authority over the enemy; and making declarations to the courts of heaven to terminate the ungodly influences the enemy has had in our lives, our family, and our generations. No one is embarrassed or singled out. The reading of the Word and the declarations we declare are done in our seats corporately.
In Lessons 7 – 10 we teach the participants to walk it out daily: Lesson 7. The renewed mind! Lesson 8. Be a doer of God’s Word! Lesson 9. Be led by the Holy Spirit! Lesson 10. A call to living Holy!
Whether a person’s journey with God began a long time ago or it is the beginning of their relationship with Him, if they will put into practice the truths presented through God’s Word and the Pathways to Wholeness Seminar: They will arrive at a new dimension of spiritual growth, victory and will be free to live the life Father God has for them!
