Ministry Team Bio

About Bruce & Barb

We are passionate about helping others step into the abundant life that Jesus promised to His disciples. Our journey has been shaped by living in authentic community, receiving and extending the unconditional love of Father God, and walking with others through both mountaintop moments and difficult seasons. We’ve been blessed with friends who have walked with us in love and truth, and it’s our joy to now walk alongside others in their own pursuit of healing, freedom, and purpose in Christ.

We believe God uses every relationship to shape and enrich us, and we count it a privilege to connect deeply with those we serve.

Our Connection to Restoring the Foundations

Over the course of 40+ years in vocational church ministry, we have witnessed firsthand the deep need for healing and freedom—not just outside the church, but within it. In 2010, God led us to Restoring the Foundations (RTF), and its integrated, Spirit-led approach deeply resonated with us.

• In July 2012, we became Healing House Network Ministers

• In December 2013, we were commissioned as RTF Trainers

RTF has become a core part of our ministry, and we are grateful to offer this life-giving resource to others.

Our Ministry Distinctives

While we are grateful for the many ways the Lord has blessed us, our life and ministry have also been shaped by trials and perseverance. Over our 42 years of marriage, we’ve walked through lean financial seasons, a cancer diagnosis, late-in-life career transitions, and the emotional cost of relocating away from our long-standing support system.

As parents by adoption, we’ve experienced the joys and challenges of raising teenagers—and we continue to walk a unique road as we support our special needs young adult son. These life experiences allow us to connect authentically with people from all walks of life, and they’ve deepened our compassion and dependence on the Lord.

We love ministering together as a couple. God has given us complementary gifts that work powerfully in tandem:

• Bruce brings theological insight, pastoral leadership, and authority in spiritual warfare.

• Barb offers discernment, a deep well of empathy, and a unique ability to uncover the spiritual roots of emotional and relational issues.

Our approach is always guided by the Holy Spirit and grounded in love, truth, and hope. Together, we help create a space where people can experience lasting healing and real transformation.
