Here is what some past participants say about More Glory!
"I had never realized that even though I'd known the Lord for years, how much the lies of the enemy were embedded in my being and in my soul. The internal voices of criticism that were rooted in rejection were so constant. One of the things that was so powerful was learning the relationship between shame and self-hatred. I would never have understood how much shame I had in my life but for this class. I learned that both need to be dealt with, and they were dealt with on the cross. I was able to take the truth of the cross and release all of that garbage. It's been through this ministry that I've really learned those tools and learned to incorporate it them into my life!" -C.K.
"I think the aspect of exchange in the cross was one of the most powerful things that struck me, that we can give him all those things that bring death to us into his cross and find an exchange, his life. And this truly transformed my life and has been a practice that I have tried to employ all the days along, since that time." -G.B.

“I came to Embracing Life [Ministries] about four years ago, and I had not yet really fully experienced forgiveness from Jesus Christ...The feelings that I had were a lot of oppression, sadness, grief, a sense that I couldn’t make any mistakes, I had to be on a treadmill of being perfect...I separated myself more and more from people...by going to [More Life!] I started to embrace that there really was forgiveness of my sins. A sense of freedom from my guilt, a freedom from trying to work it out on my own flesh, trying to cover up, trying to pretend that it was okay and look okay...There’s a lot more freedom in understanding that Jesus Christ will never leave me nor forsake me and that he has come to give me life and that much more abundant, which is John 10:10...In Jeremiah 29:11, it says, “I know my plans for you, says the Lord, plans to ... For hope, plans to prosper you, to give you a future and a hope.” And that’s what I tell everybody about [More Life!]”
“Hi, I’m Gary. I have Parkinson’s. Embracing Life, to me, is a place of hope. With a debilitating degenerative disability, it’s easy to get going down a wrong train of thought, and Embracing Life helps me to have hope and not get stuck in depressing thought patterns. It is a good place because the other people kinda...lift myself out of...this shell that [I would be in].
We started attending Embracing Life for ourselves and for our own needs. One of the benefits of being in this ministry is that, as leaders, we continue to be realistic to ourselves.
So we invite you to join us at [More Life!]. This is a really good place to be.

If you're dealing with breast cancer, or are a family member, spouse, child or friend of someone with breast cancer; or if you are in a pastoral situation ministering to those who are struggling to embrace more hope and healing, then this ½ day workshop is for you. In a church with 100 women, statistically, approximately 12 will have breast cancer in their lifetime and almost all women and men will be impacted by their relationship to someone who has encountered cancer.
More Hope! provides encouragement, relational and biblical support for those emerging from the shadow of breast cancer.
Please consider attending this seminar for a unique approach to personal transformation.
HOPE to see you there.
