Cost
• From a practical standpoint, if any
expenses are incurred while you are
being ministered to, they will be your responsibility. For example: If
a face-to-face meeting is desired or deemed necessary, you'll be
traveling to our location. Airline tickets, car rentals, hotel
accommodations, meals, etc. will be at your expense. We can, if needed,
make recommendations for travel and accommodations.
• From a
spiritual standpoint, there is no set fee schedule. Love
offerings are gratefully accepted and encouraged.
What
Open Water Is:
• A spiritual luxury liner in the middle of a sometimes vast
and desolate sea of confusion.
• A positive sounding board for ideas that involve moving
ahead from glory to glory.
The
Good →
• A soft landing for ideas that involve rising from the ashes
after a fall from grace.
The
Bad →
• Advice, not only for ministers, but for those who believe
that they have been called into ministry.
The
Ugly →
• A friend to talk to. Straight talk and Godly advice in an
often humorous, always down to earth atmosphere of love and caring.
Personal, confidential & non-judgmental words of wisdom that
you can actually put to use in your particular situation.
What
Open Water Isn't:
• An actual ocean liner. It's a metaphor for the feeling of
being spiritually all alone in a vast open ocean, surrounded by sharks,
with no land in sight.
• A pity party. If you're still grieving over your fall from
grace, we can't help you. This is a ministry geared toward real
restoration, IF you're really ready to be restored. Keep praying and
contact us when you are ready to get back in the saddle.
• A mental facility. If you are mentally or emotionally
disturbed, see a psychiatrist and keep praying. If you are not fit for
command, God will not fully restore you until you are.
• A law office. We can help with God's laws, not man's. If you
owe society a debt, pay it and/or hire an attorney. Keep praying and
contact us only when your legal issues are solved.
• An employment security organization. We can help God to
spiritually prepare you to enter or re-enter the Kingdom workforce; not
get you a job. Keep praying and when the time is right God will present
an opportunity to you.
• A justification for your actions. If you didn't do anything
wrong, then you don't need restored. Open Water helps humble
people to move ahead with the Lord.
