MINISTRY VALUES
Sowing the S.E.E.D. in Every Survivor
At the core of MindShift Thrive Global Ministries, Inc., the S.E.E.D. Principle © encapsulates a holistic approach to healing and empowerment for survivors of partner abuse. Each letter represents a crucial step in the journey towards transformation and resilience, deeply infused with faith and wisdom.
Shepherding
This step involves guiding and nurturing survivors through their healing process. Just as a shepherd leads their flock with care and attentiveness, the ministry aims to provide a supportive and nurturing environment. This involves forming strong community partnerships and accessing a wealth of resources to ensure each survivor receives the personalized care and support they need. In this safe space, survivors can begin to heal and grow, surrounded by compassion and understanding.
Elevating
Empowerment is key to transformation. This step focuses on elevating survivors to recognize and embrace their self-worth and value. It's about helping them see themselves through a new lens - one that reflects their inherent worth, both as individuals and in their identity in Christ. This elevation process encourages survivors to redefine their place in the world, fostering a sense of confidence, dignity, and purpose.
Educating
Education forms the bedrock of empowerment. MindShift Thrive Global Ministries, Inc. commits to teaching survivors biblically sound and psychologically informed principles. This dual approach ensures that healing is not only deep and meaningful but also grounded in practical, real-world applications. By understanding the principles of faith and the dynamics of abuse, survivors are equipped with the knowledge to navigate their healing journey and to make informed decisions for their future.
Discovering
The final step is about self-discovery – unraveling the true essence of each survivor. It’s a journey to uncover who they are at their core, beyond their experiences of abuse. This process involves exploring their relationships, their inner strengths, and, most importantly, who Christ wants them to be moving forward. It's a path of rediscovery, where survivors learn to identify and embrace their unique gifts, talents, and potential, guided by their faith and the supportive community around them.
