RESTORATION MINISTRY
We all experience hardship and brokenness at different times in our lives. We get stuck in our relationship with God, with other people and even with ourselves. We long to be healed and set free. Thankfully, Jesus understands and gives us great hope! He has overcome the world and through Him we can overcome as well. Our desire at Antioch is to help you find the restoration you need in Christ. Whether you are experiencing addiction, guilt, disappointment, relationship problems, difficulty hearing God, emotional wounds from the past or you just feel far from God and want to be closer to Him, we believe this pathway to inner healing can help you and those you love.

The purpose of marriage mentoring is to help couples regain and cultivate greater intimacy in their marriage.
We define intimacy as sharing yourself and receiving another. It is a sense of closeness like the oneness described in Genesis 2:24-25 when Adam and Eve were “naked and unashamed.” It is knowing yourself and being willing to be vulnerable with your spouse (naked), while also listening to your spouse and receiving them with understanding, forgiveness and repentance (unashamed). A mentor’s role is to facilitate constructive conversations between couples and give them tools that help them restore a growing intimacy in their marriage.
We have 3-4 married couples who are prepared to mentor you and your spouse to walk in greater intimacy together. These are volunteers and not legally certified counselors. .
MARRIAGE MENTORING
The Financial Restoration Ministry empowers believers with Biblical wisdom to steward their finances in a way that honors God. From overcoming debt to building a budget, our team of volunteers earnestly desires to help others honor Jesus with their finances.
We have 6-8 volunteers to help guide you in budgeting and financial coaching. These volunteers are not able to give legal financial advice.
FINANCIAL COACHING
The Listening Prayer Ministry model is not counseling. Instead, its purpose is to facilitate intimacy with God – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit – through direct dialogue with the “Wonderful Counselor.” It is encountering God Himself that fundamentally changes us. We have found that this simple and easily reproducible tool provides a way for Him to do just that. Listening Prayer invites God to help us overcome the lies and wounds that hinder us from the life-transforming intimacy we were created for with Him.
This team of trained listening prayer volunteers is led by Joni Shore and Marilynn Lee.
