Inner Healing & Deliverance

Healing the Heart, Freeing the Soul

Inner healing is the process by which Jesus brings restoration to the wounded areas of our hearts—healing emotional pain, past trauma, and deep soul wounds. It is a gentle yet powerful work of the Holy Spirit that frees us from fear, rejection, shame, and unforgiveness.

Deliverance, on the other hand, is the act of being set free from spiritual oppression or bondage. Through the authority of Jesus Christ, we can be released from anything that hinders our spiritual growth and freedom—be it lies of the enemy, generational strongholds, or demonic influences.

Together, inner healing and deliverance invite us into deeper wholeness, peace, and freedom in Christ. Jesus not only saves—He heals and sets the captives free.

Michael Stauffer

Pastor Michael is a devoted husband to Kayla and proud father of two young children. Together, they serve in ministry as a family, united by a deep passion for sharing the love of Jesus. Michael plays guitar on the worship team and carries a strong pastoral heart—not only for God's people, but also for those who have yet to encounter Christ.

Radically transformed by a powerful encounter with God, Michael was delivered and set free, and his life has never been the same. Since then, the Lord has placed powerful messages on his heart—messages of hope, freedom, and truth—that he now shares through preaching, worship, and everyday life.

Michael's calling is clear: to love boldly, lead faithfully, and minister with authenticity to both the Church and the world around him.

Kayla Stauffer

Kayla is a dedicated wife to Pastor Michael Stauffer and loving mother to their two children. Alongside her husband, she serves in ministry with a heart full of compassion and purpose. Kayla balances working and homeschooling with grace, pouring into her children’s lives while continuing to grow in her own calling.

She has a deep love for learning and a passion for helping others. Kayla is especially drawn to ministering to women—encouraging and equipping them in their walk through adulthood, motherhood, and marriage. Whether through conversation, prayer, or shared experience, Kayla’s heart is to see women grow in confidence, faith, and freedom.

Tyler Stauffer

Jeff is honoured to stand with other men who are looking for freedom from unwanted sexual behaviors or the trauma of the past experiences. Having walked his own journey out of sexual addiction, Jeff specializes in coaching men with unwanted sexual behaviors but welcomes any man wanting to move beyond the things that hold them back. Jeff completed his certification as a Recovery & Trauma Wellness Coach through Redesigned Recovery Institute of Coaching.

Jeff appreciates spending time in his yard and shop. In these spaces he takes time to relax, reflect and spend time with his family. When in his shop, his tools of choice do not require electricity. Jeff's ideal 'new tool' is one that is older than he is. Much older. The relaxing time spent in his shop is where he first learned to take his time and to 'enjoy the journey'. This understanding has aided him in his own healing and recovery journey as he learned to live in peace and joy in the midst of the process.

Jeff believes in a message of hope, healing and freedom in Jesus Christ.

Joanna is a wife, mother and ‘Grandma Jo’. She believes that every woman can walk in freedom from the devastation and disappointment of sexual betrayal. She believes that, even when life does not go as planned, it is possible to become whole again through Gods healing power.

Over the last 19 years Joanna has led the inside sales for a growing company. Her job has also included extensive travel in the United States. Before beginning this career she had the privilege of staying home with her four children.

Having completed the Redesigned Recover Institute of Coaching course, Joanna is excited to walk with other women as they find healing through Christ. She found out by disclosure that her husband of almost 30 years had been self-medicating through pornography. Joanna found hope, healing and forgiveness through the coaching process. She discovered the value of community, connecting with other women in betrayal trauma groups. Joanna specializes in coaching other women who have also experienced the trauma caused by the betrayal from their husbands’ addictions.

Joanna loves music, singing and dancing. She particularly enjoys dancing around the house to really loud music because it brings so much healing and freedom. She also loves spending time with her grandchildren; especially dancing with them. Entering into God’s presence through music has brought Joanna much healing during her journey.
