Dear Friend of Be Broken,

 

This past year of ministry has been a time of celebration. Here are just a few highlights:

 

• Celebrated our 20th anniversary since founding in July 2003

• New resources in Family Care: 30-week curriculum on God’s Design for Emotional Growth & Sexuality, Just Between Us parent-child journal, and Learning Labs

• We surpassed 900 episodes on the Pure Sex Radio podcast (36 guests this year!)

• My new book was published: Grace-Based Transformation: The 3-Stage Journey to Wholeness in Christ

 

In addition to these amazing “program” highlights, we directly served hundreds of people from around the world – this is our greatest privilege and passion. It is the transformation of people’s lives that we celebrate most of all; to see them “burn bright” as a result of encountering God’s grace is a joy like no other. Rejoice with us in these testimonies of changed lives: 

 

“I felt freedom. I have hope to see myself how God sees me: a man of integrity, a man who pursues God with everything he has, a man who has purpose … a man free from all bondages of sin.” 

–Paul T., GTF Alumni

 

“This course has assisted in re-establishing my relationship with My Savior by taking an honest hard look at my life and understanding biblical principles in a much clearer and profound way. I feel better equipped as I go forward to be strong and courageous in my journey through this life.”

–Matthew F., 40 Days of Purity student

 

“This group helped me feel not so alone in all I was dealing with. It helped validate my feelings that pornography has no place in a healthy, loving, Christian marriage. The resources provided were instrumental in starting my recovery process, and in helping me identify thoughts/feelings that I didn't quite understand. I am a stronger, healthier, more resilient woman than when I first started this Wives Care Group.”

–K.L., Wives Care Group attendee

 

“Our youth ministry used Identity as a small group discipleship study to guide us into talking about the important topics of gender, sexuality, and identity. At best, there are a lot of mediocre youth resources on the market. This book was great and exactly what we needed. It appropriately talked about these topics but focused primarily on the importance of where our ultimate identity is found. It spurred great conversations with the focus being on the right thing, our identity in Christ.”

–Jordan Y., Youth Pastor

 

God has been so faithful in this ministry, especially in how he keeps raising up leaders from the ash heap of brokenness to burn bright in helping others on the Transformation Pathway, proving that his grace and power are sufficient for the task of redemption. All of our group leaders in Wives Care are women who came through the online groups. All of our Gateway to Freedom mentors are men who came through the 3-day intensive workshop. Others might have looked at these lives and never considered them for such vital roles in God’s redemptive work. But God…
