Welcome to Mission EDIFY
Let us then, make it our aim, to work for peace
and to edify one another. (Romans 14: 19)
Mission EDIFY, LLC is a grassroots ecumenical teaching initiative that recognizes the complexities of healing and forgiveness in the emotional aftermath of abuse, abandonment, and unprecedented media exposure to religious scandal.
With firsthand knowledge adjoined to over a decade of empirical research and professional guidance, Creative Member, Wendy Redroad, is uniquely qualified to address stark realities while illuminating the presence of Unfailing Love. The artistic sensibility she brings to the topics of healing and forgiveness is rooted in a deep understanding that “one size” pastoral responses to trauma do not fit the whole of the flock. The Source remains “the same yesterday, today, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8).
"Quieting troubled waters is not the same as rescuing drowning people, and smothering conflict is not the same as helping people to forgive each other." -Lewis B. Smedes
