Resources for Adult Development
Beyond Bars Holistic Hardware
Beyond Bars is designed to help your church effectively minister to inmates and their families. As individuals experience the touch of God through His people they will undergo life change. A hands-on ”in- your- life” approach to prison ministry though evangelism, discipleship, and the “life needs”’ of persons convicted of crimes and connecting with family members through tangible assistance and spiritual mentoring.
Using time-tested principles, Biblical and real-life role models, dramatic sketches and inspirational testimonies, Holistic Hardware focuses on ten key tools that an individual needs to transform his circumstances and character. The tools:(Vision, Responsibility, Self-esteem, Faith, Discipline, Association, Planning, Work, Wealth, and Love) equip people to move through a dynamic process from brokenness to wholeness.
New Focus
Empowers churches and mobilizes members to reach out to people experiencing financial, emotional, and spiritual stress. New Focus provides skills and confidence to handle difficult and sensitive problems brought on by financial trauma.
WorkNet
WorkNet is a highly successful model of Career Development & Job Placement for people with barriers, helping the most challenged job seekers to begin and advance in careers they enjoy. The WorkNet Model is a proven process for creatively overcoming any barrier a candidate faces. WorkNet is known for making Career Development a reality in the lives of people often considered unemployable.” Having explored the concepts, tools and techniques that work in the mainstream, we have developed an approach that allows Career Development to come alive for people who are generally given quick-fix job placement services.
CareerLink Workshops
CareerLink uses Foundation of Hope messages, Holistic Hardware, WorkNet and other resources that address practical, social, emotional, and spiritual roadblocks to meaningful employment. It encourages development of a life plan and career path as opposed to a “just get a job” mentality. CareerLink Workshops utilizes all the Adult Development Resources to enable churches/organizations to customize a program to fit their specific environment that includes ongoing support and updates.
