Why Is Fear Paralyzing?

Why does fear paralyze us so much? Think about it. A guy wants to ask out a girl and he can't take the step. A person has a secret that they fear others to know, so they feel lonely and isolated.

Get Involved. Facilitate!

Restore Ministries' small groups are places where community, growth and support all happen simultaneously. Many who go through one small group end up understanding and experiencing the freedom that comes with being truly known and accepted by others.

Facilitators of these small groups foster that environment and have the ability to walk with other people, no matter where they are on life's journey.

Women's Self-Esteem Classes

"Self-esteem in women peaks when they are nine years old, then takes a nose dive," clinical psychologist Robin F. Goodman writes on the New York University Child Study Center Web site.
