Marty and Jill got together as a couple nineteen years ago. God divinely placed them together for a purpose. The purpose is to bring hope to the hurting people in this world.
Marty had a rough childhood losing his mother at an early age and an alcoholic father. He went into the army at age sixteen to learn all about life and PTSD. After several years of marriage and two children he experienced a divorce which left him devastated.
Jill’s dad had PTSD from World War II and mom was an adult child of an alcoholic. She didn’t realize these things until she needed help sorting out things in her own life. Jill got raped at knifepoint by a stranger when she was twenty three years old. At this time she promised God that if she could live, she would do what she needed to do on this earth. This led to learning many things in real life situations and has proven to be a great teacher to understanding other’s situations.
Marty and Jill both have been trained in ministry and have received training through Restoring the Foundations Ministry along with Communion With God Ministries by Dr. Mark Virkler, and Oaks Rising with Steve and Pam Vandenbulk.
They are currently involved in a two year journey The Way of the Sempitir, which is an in depth learning process of walking through feedom while being trained to walk others through it too. The course is presented by Oaks Rising with Steve and Pam Vandenbulk.
They are also a part of Zoe Ministry as a part of the fellowship they attend, Loft Church in Herrin, Illinois. Zoe Ministry is a freedom ministry that helps people get free and transformed through ministry sessions.
They both have attended recovery meetings for decades to keep working on their own healing and restoration along with helping others.
They have always believed in living a life of accountability.
They offer a non-judgmental approach to getting your past healed and gaining the freedom to enjoy the present in your life.
