Learn the art of holding someoneās story.
Live Training April 27th 9-4pm atĀ The Well Church in Columbia, TNĀ
When someone comes to you needing care, it can feel overwhelming. The temptation may be to respond with a clichĆ© Bible verse, suggest a book, or connect someone with a professional. Although these can be good tools, the best tool is already standing right in front of them. You! God is sending YOU into the world as a mouthpiece of hope. This 6-hour in-personĀ training will help you form deeper connections with yourself, God, and others to transform the world around you.
Karrie Garcia
Growing up, the hurt and pain in my family’s story was hidden behind Bible memory verses, church services, and performance. I watched my mom serve the church as my dad pastored on Sunday only to come home and hide her pain with an eating disorder through the week. After a lifetime of concealing and dismissing the hurt in her story, my mom took her own life.
The anger and fear I felt as a witness to this left me feeling hopeless. Just like my mom, this led me down a pathway of various addictions to fill the void in my heart. In the aftermath of drug addiction, a failed marriage, and broken ministry, I considered ending my own life, too.
God met me in my brokenness with one question, “What would it look like to be honest?”
This question was the catalyst to a lifelong pursuit of true freedom in my story and has defined my work as a pastor, coach, author, and speaker for the last 28 years.
To see true change in the world around us, we need more than behavior modification. We need a heart transformation!
During hard conversations are you thinking things like...
"What if I say the wrong thing and lead them astray?"
"I’m not a professional counselor or pastor."
"I feel so overwhelmed when people come to me with hard emotions."
"I wish I had the answers so I could fix the problem."
"What are the best questions I should be asking?"

Biblically Sound
We believe every word of Scripture is living and active, breathed out by God, written and preserved by human writers, and inspired by the Holy Spirit (Hebrews 4:12, 2 Timothy 3:16-17, 2 Peter 1:21). Every page, from cover to cover, is given that we might know God (Matthew 4:4). Nothing you are doing, have done, or will do renders you ineligible for the good news of the gospel (1 Timothy 2:3-4).
Spirit-Filled
We believe in the person and power of the Holy Spirit who equips us to understand the words He has already inspired in scripture and live out the calling God gives to each of us. Transformation in our lives and the lives of others is initiated, sustained, and completed by the Holy Spirit. (2 Timothy 3:16, Matthew 28:16-20, John 14:26).
Trauma-Informed
Trauma-informed care asks the relational question, “What’s happened to you?” instead of the solution-oriented question, “What’s wrong with you?” We all have a story of brokenness that needs tending. In order to see complete healing in our lives and the lives of others, there must be an atmosphere of safety that nurtures God’s work of restoration.
Trauma-informed care in the church aims to help people understand God’s meaning and purpose in their lives, fulfill the unique roles God designed them for, and see themselves as more than the brokenness in their story. This work requires patience, care, and connection. It does not dismiss or diminish the trauma done. When the love of God is welcomed in to tend to the places of harm in our story, our pain becomes our purpose.
Diving into your past trauma to identify where the enemy has attacked your identity will open you up to true transformation and healing. Karrie's work has helped me and my church reestablish our identity in Christ and walk in true freedom.
DAVE MUDD | LEAD PASTOR OF THE HOPE COLLECTIVE
This course helped me learn how to offer up my emotions to God and take the time to allow God to heal the broken parts in my life. Doing this has changed the way I communicate with others, the way that I process, and the way that I form relationships personally and professionally. I am ditching insecurity and embracing the authority that God has given me in the way I'm leading my business."
NINA VELEZ | SOCIAL MEDIA SPECIALIST
This work enabled me to find healing and hope for my own story to help me understand how God works in the lives of others.
The tools I gained have made a significant difference in both personal and professional life. It has helped me be a more whole and connected wife, mom, and coach.
