Doorway to H.o.p.e. Leader's Guide Dr. David Grimm

Help Overcoming Painful Experiences (H. O. P. E.) is a non-profit organization that both cultivates and promotes the value of spiritual and emotional health from a Biblical perspective. Our mission is to provide a safe place to work through the emotional issues that hinder us from fully embracing God, others, and life with enthusiasm. To accomplish our mission, H. O. P. E. was designed to help people 1) overcome emotional pain from a variety of issues, 2) build a safe and healthy support network, 3) comprehend the truths about God in the midst of pain while exposing and replacing lies and 4) experience a life transformation through the healing power of Jesus Christ. In essence, we resurrect hope. Our support and recovery model consists of three levels. Doorway to H. O. P. E. is used during Level 1 as the entry point into our program and focuses on Three Truths About Life. These truths are used to encourage a commitment to the journey to emotional and spiritual wholeness and healing. Doorway to H. O. P. E. exposes needs, tears down barriers to making healthy changes and 'wets appetites' for experiencing God's transformational power.
