Freedom Session was written by a pastor and birthed in a church that believed in empowering lay people to minister freedom and healing in Jesus’ name. It was important to create a program, a journey in community that digs deep and yet protects church staff / volunteers from getting in over their heads. Freedom Session has proven this is possible.

The key role we needed to develop was the FS Host or Facilitator. This person needs to be a committed Christian, not a counselor.

in 2022, we updated the FS teaching videos and created new Mid-week Mentor segments to make Hosting / Facilitating a FS small group easier and ensure a quality experience for participants. 

Qualities we look for in a FS Small Group Host or Facilitator are authenticity, reliability and a deep love for those in their group. The most successful Freedom Session ministries are those where Hosts/Facilitators are active participants in the Freedom Journey, even if they have taken the course before.

The FS Small Group Host/Facilitator models by example and encourages small group members to work through the FS journey as it is presented. Additional roles include creating a welcome and secure environment, providing adequate projection/audio for the FS teaching, a snack and a sense of community. 

During the Covid-19 Pandemic, we help start more FS Small Groups and Triads than ever before and are inviting you to Join the Movement by hosting one in your home or church.
