“It was a dark and stormy night…”
Not really but it makes for an intriguing beginning to any story. Just ask Snoopy. Anywho, in April of 2022 Overcoming Walls was founded by David G. Hall. Check out his profile on the “About” page on our website. Two years of helping men, women, and families Overcome the Walls of anxiety, anger, depression, stress, and spiritual battles. This includes the addictions of alcohol, drugs, entertainment, sex, and work caused by a variety of relational and childhood trauma through abuse, neglect, and family dysfunction.
As we celebrate the second anniversary of Overcoming Walls, we give all praise and glory to the Lord Most High for being so good to us these past two years. As with any ministry there have been ups and downs, ins and outs that was never planned nor expected. Yet our Lord has guided us through these times, and we remain to serve others only because of his goodness.
What started back many years ago as mere discussion and planning in Lafayette, IN has blossomed because of one man’s vision to return to the fire and help pull more people out to freedom. Along the way that man with God’s help has brought alongside him others to assist in the rescuing of others to freedom. This desire is God-given and carried out with love from men and women that have been deep in the same bondage. Truth in love works only through the Holy Spirits guiding of one’s tongue to say the correct words that person needs so desperately to hear. It’s true that God loves them, but that also he so desires an intimate and personal relationship with that person in order to bring them out of the Adversary’s bondage and into the Light of Truth found only in Jesus Christ.
As a personal friend of David, I am thankful to work alongside this man who has a heart and desire to love and serve our Lord. Join us in praising the Lord for the last two years, and for the many years to come as we serve our Lord together. Revelation 21:7, “The one who conquers will have this heritage, and I will be his God and he will be my son.”
It’s time to choose. It’s time for Overcoming Walls. Make 2024 the year!
Grace and peace, James
