About Lifting The Soul Ministries
Lifting the Soul ministries was born out of an early morning awakening. Where I was downloaded with a vision on how I can serve men and guide them towards a life of empowerment. Taking them on a journey for growth by elevating the soul. Basing many of the teachings from Christian sources and philosophies and looking beyond to the deeper heart behind those very teachings. It is through prayer and a willingness to serve that has really brought this ministry to life. The vision of Lifting the soul ministries is to create a community where every person can find their value and have a safe place to share the deepest struggles they may be going through and find the support and courage to face those challenges.

My personal growth journey began in 2011 when I found myself trapped in pornography, and my marriage was struggling to survive. Through marriage counseling, I was introduced to a Christian 12-step program for men battling sexual addiction. I spent five years actively participating in the group and learning valuable tools. For the first three and a half years, I was determined to break free from the habits that had consumed me, remaining completely free of pornography and masturbation. However, in the last year and a half, I began slipping back into old patterns. A change in my living situation and the loss of my job forced me to leave the group, as I could no longer afford the extra gas to attend meetings. Isolated from my support system, I eventually returned to hiding my struggles and telling lies.
In the late fall of 2017, my marriage reached a breaking point, and we faced immense stress when the home we had planned to place on our land was destroyed during the move. Amid this turmoil, I was caught watching pornography, which became the catalyst for the final unraveling of my marriage. In July 2018, my wife informed me she wanted a divorce and gave me until the end of August to move out of our rented home. The news sent me into a deep depression and further isolation. Seeking legal counsel, I was advised to secure a separation agreement before leaving. When I informed my wife of this, she refused to accept it and disappeared with our three children in September.
For over two months, I navigated the legal system to locate my children. Because my two oldest were considered old enough to decide for themselves, the process was prolonged. However, since my youngest son was still underage, I was entitled to access, which allowed me to pursue legal action. With no documented history of mental illness on my wife's part, the process took time, but just before Christmas of 2018, I was awarded custody of my children.
In January 2019, my wife expressed a desire to reconcile, hoping to bring our family back together. Believing we were making progress, I moved back in with her at the home she had secured when she left. However, after six months, she again insisted on divorce. This second separation hit me even harder than the first, as I had genuinely believed we were rebuilding our relationship. This time, she waited until the separation agreement was finalized before moving out with the children in November 2019.
Once again, I found myself alone, with no one willing to help me navigate the emotional and personal challenges I was facing. In late February 2021, I came across an advertisement for an organization dedicated to helping men change their lives for the better. I quickly joined and, through their support, attended a transformative four-day event in Arizona that reignited the journey I had started years before. Over the next two and a half years, I actively participated in their online programs, which provided me with strength and guidance as I faced significant life challenges.
In July 2021, I finalized my divorce, and in September of the same year, my father passed away. These were some of the hardest moments of my life, but with the tools and support I had gained, I was able to navigate them with resilience. Seeking a way to share my story and support others, I launched a weekly podcast, Life with Jason, in January 2022—a project I continue to this day.
After leaving the organization, I once again found myself largely isolated, but this time, I was equipped with the tools and empowerment gained over the past two years. I knew there was something more for me, though I couldn’t quite pinpoint what it was. Through prayer and faith, I made a bold decision: in June 2023, I resigned from my job of five and a half years to forge a new path and live life differently.
For several months, I focused on projects around my land, and slowly, things began to take shape. Around this same time, I was presented with an opportunity to travel to Maui and work on a farm that provides meals for those in need. While there, I experienced a profound awakening and received the vision to create Lifting the Soul Ministries—a mission dedicated to serving men through life coaching and mentorship.
