Do we have to be martyrs to love people well?

Christian love is—no joke!—extremely good news.

  • Have you ever wondered why "loving like Jesus" makes you feel bitter, angry or resentful?
  • Do you feel like a better Christian would enjoy thriving relationships?
  • Have you tried to love people well...only to feel used?


I’d love to help you:

  • Admit the resentment, frustration and pain you’re feeling in a key relationship.
  • Recognize the ways your relationship is chipping away at yours’ and others’ dignity.
  • Believe that loving dignity is possible in every circumstance.
  • Take a practical, safe, and kind step towards a hopeful future.


I’ll talk about my own struggles with candor, point out Christian culture’s occasional tone-deafness about emotional and relational health and—heads up—drop a cuss word once or twice.

Work your way through this four-hour self-paced course 10-15 minutes at a time.

 The downloadable workbook will help you take notes during the sessions and journal your thoughts afterwards, and provides suggested resource lists for further study and help.

Commit to love.

Sign up for the course and begin a gentle, healing journey towards love that affirms your dignity.

Before I knew it, I was looking at myself and—without shame—understanding my part [in healing my relationships]. Heather is very gentle and hit the spot on all of her suggestions. She has an all too rare talent.

"Makes these hard topics easier"

I so appreciate Heather’s ability to communicate about such challenging ideas in such a grace-filled way, and her willingness to share [so vulnerably]. She is a natural speaker and has a gentleness and generosity that makes these hard topics easier to examine and reflect on.
