Speak to these Dry Bones
A complete clinical and theological framework for relational healing — from assessment and wound anatomy through accountability, anger, grief, honesty, grace, and trust. Each course stands alone; together they form a comprehensive arc from injury to restoration.
Assessment & Relational Wounds
Establishing the clinical and theological foundation — identifying relational wounds, understanding assessment frameworks, and beginning the diagnostic work of naming what happened.
Anatomy of Relational Injury
A clinical examination of how relational wounds form, propagate, and embed in the nervous system, identity, and behavioral patterns across time.
Accountability Without Shame
How to take genuine accountability for harm caused — without collapsing into shame, performing remorse, or bypassing the process that genuine repair requires.
Distance as an Act of Care
Distance is often misread as abandonment — yet it can be a profound act of protection. This course reframes relational distance as a necessary and loving response when all other limits have failed.
Consequence, Not Abandonment
When limits are rejected, warnings ignored, and repair refused — the withdrawal of protection is not abandonment. It is consequence. This course distinguishes between the two and explores why consequence preserves the possibility of genuine change.
The Essential Role of Time
Time is one of the most overlooked elements of healing. Trauma cannot be rushed. Trust cannot be commanded. This course makes the case that time is not passive — it is active, necessary, and irreplaceable in genuine relational healing.
Grace as Capacity-Building
Grace does not erase consequences or minimize harm — it rebuilds capacity. Authentic grace emerges after exposure, accountability, and the acceptance of limits. A neurological and spiritual reset that changes how memory is carried.
Trust as the Outcome
Trust is not an entry requirement for healing — it is the result of sustained safety over time. The capstone course integrates the full series framework and cautions against premature reconciliation, spiritual bypass, and boundary erosion.
