Growth and change are essential if we are to find the healing that God wants for us. Although change is difficult, it is rarely as painful as running from our problems. God desires us to be conformed into His Image. If we learn to embrace change as a way of life, we may learn to avoid many of life’s pitfalls before we stumble and fall. Vinekeepers is committed to assisting people as they learn to heal and grow.
