The church is being called to a new era in which the power of the risen Christ is relied on to heal the sick, and part the “Red Sea” of Christian problems, reflective of His power to overcome. The church is being called to an honest assessment of individual lives, leaders, talents, assets and abilities as well as character defects in order to heal and truly live the victorious life Christ died to give us. Sanctification goes beyond salvation to address the root cause of sin, besetting sins, and problems which threaten to destroy our families, communities, churches and the nation.

Many churches focus on the number of salvations to monitor effectiveness. We are focused on different numbers: How many fall away from the faith because they are not taught how to righty apply the word of God to their needs?...How many children are beaten in the name of Christ, without our intervention?...How much money was embezzled from church funds due to the addiction of a trusted member?...How many people attend regularly and yet have no personal relationship with Christ? 

“Stop the Violence…Seven Stages to Sanctify…Claim the Promises of Christ,” the companion workbook to “Journey of the Soul…,” goes beyond academic exercises and focuses on self-awareness, deep reflection, honesty and faith. Different from “talk therapy” the “Seven Stages to Sanctify” is designed to address life’s problems and challenges at the heart of the issue, rather than treating symptoms only. Based on the teachings of the Master, it is a powerful discipleship tool that is appropriate for one-on-one use, small, and large groups. 

“Jesus came to set the captive free and heal the wounds of the broken hearted. To continue the work of Christ requires a good theology and a biblical psychology and that is what Rev. Carrol and Dr. Phyllis Davis offer the church. I recommend their books and ministry.“ Dr. Neil T. Anderson, Founder and President Emeritus of Freedom in Christ Ministries
