SHAME IS SILENT ... BUT HOPE WON'T BE QUIET!!!

Address the largest UNSPOKEN NEED in your church and community ... be part of the solution.

Men and women whose lives have been restored through AVENUE become passionate about the church that offered them help, hope and healing. With sensuality and sexual temptation permeating every facet of our society, there's an ever growing need for the church family to boldly and tactfully create a safe environment where these common issues are brought into the light.

Do you have the desire, but don't know where to start? That's where AVENUE comes in. We offer you the resources to equip you. With our small group studies and leadership training, you have the tools at hand to become a place that people can be real about the issues that plague their lives. Most AVENUE groups are church led. Yet we know that every new ministry comes with its own work. We know that administration bogs you down. Our model for small groups was refined with insight from full time pastors. Our goal for pastors is to lighten their load.

AVENUE has been, and continues to be one of the most effective resources we offer to our church and our community. The reward to us is priceless, yet this ministry has neither burdened myself nor my staff. Our AVENUE chapter generates its own force of volunteers through those men and women whose lives have been transformed.

We are convinced that the most strategic use of your time and talents is to teach on the subject of sexual wounding, and offer hopeful solutions by introducing your AVENUE groups.
