EACH LIFE IS AN UNFINISHED STORY BreakThrough is about acquiring tools to improve the quality of your life.  Whether you have stepped confidently or stumbled, achieved goals or fallen short, felt contentment or disappointment, the rest of your life story will depend largely upon how you describe it to yourself. If your life is not working, believing that you can improve it may be hard to accept ... or it may be very good news.  You may be experiencing the deterioration of a relationship or job.  Perhaps you feel driven by guilt and fear and find yourself repeating old patterns of thinking and behaving.  Or you may be isolating yourself and imagining that even God is against you. BreakThrough gives you the opportunity, in a safe environment, to identify and examine the validity of the beliefs that have shaped your life story.  Then, you can realize your true potential by choosing the beliefs that will work well for you and create a future very different from your past.

THE PAST NEED NOT DEFINE YOUR FUTURE Only you know what it's been like to live your life and how past experiences still impact your decisions.  You may remember specific events that linger with you, continue to shape your choices and limit the quality of your life ... or you may not see the connection at all.  BreakThrough is a safe place to explore the impact of your past, learn how to keep what empowers you and let go of the rest.  Though you can't rewrite history, you'll discover that suffering is not a given and that you can increase you capacity to live confidently and effectively.  You'll identify healthy spiritual resources that give your life meaning and purpose.

YOU CAN LEAVE OLD HURTS BEHIND - BreakThrough 1 The first step in writing a different life story is recognizing that you're "stuck" in some area of life and you're wanting more for yourself and others who have been affected by your choices. BreakThrough 1 gives you the opportunity to identify the self-limiting thoughts and behaviors that are interfering with your effectiveness at home or on the job.  Getting "real" is the first step in composing a different life story, one that works.  (2 & 1/2 days)

YOU CAN WRITE A DIFFERENT STORY - BreakThrough 2 The foundation of real change is in acknowledging your patterns of making unwise decisions and choosing unhealthy behaviors to avoid failure, disappointment or pain. In BreakThrough 2, you'll experience the freedom to begin composing a different future.  You can stop letting the past define you, stop living from the sidelines, and start living boldly and confidently.  And you will discover for yourself how your spiritual journey can become a resource for your life story. (4 & 1/2 days)

YOU CAN LIVE IN THE HERE AND NOW - BreakThrough 3 As you co-author a different life story, you'll need tools to manage your emotions and break the patterns of the past.  In BreakThrough 3, you'll learn to discern past losses and disappointments as simply your backstory.  You'll appreciate the value of your history for lessons learned ... lessons that have taught you compassion and ability to appreciate the blessings of the present. (2 & 1/2 days)

YOU CAN START WRITING THE REST OF YOUR LIFE STORY - BreakThrough 4 You'll discover that a well-lived life may not follow a straight line, but a winding path; and, that God's grace shines upon you, even when you stumble.  BreakThrough 4 equips you to define yourself and use your strength and vitality to set personal goals and to live effectively.  By using the tools you've acquired in BreakThrough, you can live your best life and look forward to tomorrow from this point forward.
