Freedom in Christ – Thailand

Joyce and her husband Larry have been in full time ministry for most of their 35+ years of marriage. They have raised 3 wonderful kids and she knows, by experience, the pressures that are placed on families in ministry. In 1993, they joined Freedom in Christ Ministries, after having been personally impacted by the message and ministry of Dr. Neil T Anderson. In the past 16 years, Joyce has sat with countless women all over the United States and Asia, hearing their stories, and helping them to understand how to experience their personal freedom in Christ. Joyce has been in Thailand since 2005, with a desire to come alongside fellow Christian workers and to provide support and encouragement.

I enjoy:

Heartbeat:

“A leading psychologist has said that ‘Anxiety arises from a state of disconnection’. I believe that our major connection needs to be with God, Himself. There can be many reasons Christians feel disconnected from God. It is my joy to help women to reconnect with Immanuel, the God who is with us. For me, He is the omnipresent third party in every session. Once we can experience His presence with us, pain no longer becomes something to avoid at all cost, but rather a pathway in the journey through which we grow and become more like Jesus, who also learned through suffering and loving obedience to be all His Father intended for Him.â€
