OUR MISSION: To provide HOPE to those millions bound by dependencies.

In 1975, Fred Hyde, was invited to preach at the Australian General Conference. During one service he shared his testimony; a year later he returned to find that a man had joined the church after hearing a recorded tape of that night. The man wondered what could be on a $0.30 piece of plastic that had so deeply moved him, and imagined the impact if that story reached 30 million Americans battling alcoholism. My father then traveled to Lahore, Pakistan, where he read an English-language Russian newspaper, Sputnik, which ran an article about a mansion restored from disrepair—a story titled “Raised From the Ruins.” He returned to the United States intending to pastor a church and build a ministry gradually, but following a debriefing at Foreign Missions headquarters he began receiving invitations to speak, and the work steadily expanded. When he passed away on Christmas Day 2009, the ministry, formerly known as Spirit of Freedom, was in use in more than 1,800 of our then-4,000 churches and had spread worldwide through our missionaries. 

Following Fred Hyde's death in 2017, his son Mike Hyde took up the mantle with Reflections of Freedom Ministry, LLC.   In today's society dependencies such as:  alcohol, tobacco, drugs, pornography, have extended into cutting, video gambling, online pornography, vaping and many more invisible chains.  They produce lying, shame, fear, anger, loneliness, and hopelessness to name a few.  They destroy our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual being.  These dependencies' inevitably damage relationships, families,  friends, homes, and careers.  These chains will damage the mind and how it process.  We can see the effects this takes on  mental acuity,  These chains are lies.  Their goal is to keep us bound and a dependent.  

No ONE can overcome addiction by himself/herself. Everybody needs supports, regardless if you are the abuser or victim.  We have found the most successful program used to break these chains of dependencies is the Bible.  The Bible is what we rebuild our life upon.  You must have a strong foundation before you begin to rebuild.  God's word is delivering the dependant. How? Why?  Because God's word is the user manual for mankind.  Everyday some where in the world God is delivering the addicted from their addictions.  This is a proven foundation. YOU CAN OVERCOME TOO.

We created the Christian Intervention Program (CIP) which is a Court Approved/Mandated weekly program designed to give power over all dependencies.  In addition it teaches how to rebuild a life.  This program consists of 20 Lessons addressing alcohol, drugs and other dependencies.  There are also lessons on how to put your everyday life back together.

If you or your church is interested in providing the CIP program, please contact us.  We have Adult and Youth curriculum.   We provide teacher and student materials, Resources such as books, tracts, and charts are also available.  We offer support in establishing this ministry in your congregation.  You will obtain the prayers and support of the CIP Family.

If you want to start a prison / jail ministry this is an excellent program to help you reach that goal.  Or if you have an existing prison / jail ministry and wish to add an additional resource to you ministry, this is excellent.  We just recently had a prison purchase for over 100 student booklets.  People are tired of programs that don't work.  But these lessons have the power of God intricately sewn in and thus provide real change!

We do NOT offer online classes.  Why? Because this ministry requires an in-person friendship.  To overcome dependencies, a physical relationship with the student is mandatory.    Online classes would only provide surface level knowledge.  We are seeking the root of the human soul.  Connection is key. Be prepared to become, not just an instructor, but a friend to each student 24/7/365.

Our Volunteer professional staff & Board is dedicated to bringing you hope!  If you would like us to help you reach YOUR world or change YOUR life call, email or text.  We are here to bring you freedom and hope. You do NOT have to live life with these invisible chains.
