The Life Model is a unifying approach to ministries of counseling,
recovery, pastoral care, prayer ministry, deliverance, inner healing,
child rearing, body life and health. Substance abuse recovery
programs internationally are guided by the Life Model's five
principles. Because the Life Model develops strong maturity, it is
widely used as a church model, particularly where people must face
suffering. Missions have adopted the Life Model for restoring hurt
missionary children. Almost every major ministry dealing with trauma
and abuse in the USA uses the Life Model as part of their teaching.
