Liberating Believers Into Their God Given Purpose!  We desire to ignite the intimate understanding of God’s unique plan and agenda in the heart of every Disciple of Jesus Christ, which will bring fulfillment, joy and purpose.  Each Disciple will know God more passionately while making a difference in daily interactions in the world around them, while learning to embrace their God-Given Design.

Accomplish the mission statement by:

• Providing comprehensive classes in learning how each person processes information and relates with the people around them
• Provide assessments to discover temperaments, impact styles, and what motivates them
• Provide spiritual gifting assessment
• Facilitate a Design Discovery Meeting; which enables an individual, with the help of a BrushFires leader, to discover their God-Given Design
• Provide ongoing training through support groups:  “Man on Fire”, and “Women on Fire”

1. Uncover your God-given design via the Y•M•I Assessment.
2. Reveal the necessity for you to pursue the Father’s purposes for your life.
3. Increase your awareness of the enemies methods to cripple you from living the life the Father wants for you.
4. Empower you to give and receive grace when your design conflicts with someone else's.
5. Discovering your spiritual gifts to confirm your God-given Personal Purpose Statement.

We offer this transformational experience in either a two-day seminar at your location, or as an online eight week session (one session per week) via Zoom. Our Leadership training equips your leaders to minister to The Body by training them on design, design conflicts and ministry building.  The Leadership training can also be done on site or via Zoom.​

If you would like to set up a seminar, participate in the online course, or have BrushFires​ staff conduct your Design Discovery Meeting (DDM), simply purchase  the Complete Y•M•I Assessment package and take the assessments. ​

BrushFires Ministry helps Christians discover and pursue their personal God-given design, equipping them to build up the body of Christ.  The BrushFires program will give you a personal life choice compass. We call this your God-given Personal Purpose Statement. Together, we will uncover the conflicts that often surface between your design and the designs of those around you.

BrushFires can help any church uncover their untapped resources in ministry and to discover what The Lord wants to accomplish through their ministry, all the while allowing The Believer to experience fulfillment through pursuing their purpose.  We can help solve the 80 / 20 problem in any church.  By leading your members to where The Father created them to minister, you get results at the same time your members achieve a level of contentment and purpose they can only experience by allowing The Father to fulfill His agenda through them.
​
The BrushFires  program will reveal the personal demands of how you are designed.  These personal demands are your unique set of prerequisites for you to be the best version of you.  They reveal the necessary, though often missing, pieces in your life that you need to accomplish your purpose.  This is all accomplished through evaluating your Y•M•I Assessment results during your personal Design Discovery Meeting (DDM).​

The purpose of the BrushFires Ministry is to edify every Believer who loves Jesus Christ.  This ministry is especially impactful for those who have no idea where they fit in The Body of Christ.  Have you ever felt like an orphan with no authority to make a difference in your life or in this world?  We expose lies and replace them with the truth.  The heavenly Father designed you to be victorious in this world.  We guide you on a path The Father specifically created for you.  A journey to reap the fruit The Father sanctified you to harvest. It's time for you to become who The Father always intended you to be.  Now Is The Time!   The Time Is Now!

BrushFires Ministry accomplishes this by using the Y•M•I Assessments to reveal how you are designed and how your design influences the direction of your life's goals. The results of these assessments will reveal to you the following:
 

• The interests that most fulfill you.
• What motivates you to get involved .
• How your design empowers you to achieve your goals.
• Why it's important for you to pursue your goals.
• How your way of thinking impacts your ability to achieve those goals.
• How your unique gifting and design is intended to be used by The Father to accomplish His will.
• You are royalty and are intended to accomplish great things.

How long do the assessments take?

The 3 Basic Assessments can be done in less than 45 minutes. The 3 Advanced Assessments take on average 20 minutes for each assessment.

How soon do I get my results?

Upon completion of each assessment, your results are immediately displayed to you. Once you finalize the assessment results, those results are then emailed to you. Upon completion of all of the assessments, you can arrange a Design Discovery Meeting (DDM) to receive a deep dive into your God Given Design. The Full DDM results in a Purpose Statement, your personal why and how you fit into The Body of Christ.

How do I receive my design and purpose statement?

Our program can be experienced through our personal / group study BrushFires workbook "Discover Your Devine Design", through our BrushFires 8 week Zoom or live classes, through our 2 day FireStorm events or through private coaching. The design comes together upon the completion of each assessment. These results are pulled together through the Assessments Summary Form. Further insight can be arranged through your Design Discovery Meeting (DDM).

How do I know this is accurate?

The assessments are based on the science of psychometrics and 4 decades of practice of Steven Johnson from Strategic People Development. Psychometrics is the study of the mind / soul / personality traits. It focuses in how a person is wired. Other personality assessments focus on behavior, which changes throughout a person's life. These assessments have been measured over the decades with the highest ratings of validity and reliability.

What is a Design Discovery Meeting (DDM) ?

The Design Discovery Meeting process is unlike any other. You will be seen and valued for who you really are based on the answers you gave in your Y•M•I Assessments. It's not uncommon for emotions to come to the surface, because most people go through life without ever feeling seen, understood or valued for who they are. For these reasons and more, we do the DDM evaluations privately.

I am approaching retirement and became concerned about the next chapter of my life (Final Third Life Choices).  Through BrushFires Ministries I finally discovered my Life’s Purpose (God Given Personal Purpose Statement).  I can now continue my journey knowing how I am to use my special skills and gifts to bring God glory and achieve personal fulfillment.

​My heart is to help the broken, those affected by addiction and or life’s trials, to come to an understanding of the power and love of Christ.  I was able to discover my following Personal Purpose Statement as part of the BrushFires Course.  ‘I must impact others by helping them come to terms with their life experiences, through a structured organization, by reassuring them with patience and empathy.’   The course breaks down different traits and allows you to discover your design. It was nice to have it presented in a group setting, then be able to discover my Purpose Statement in a private Design Discovery Meeting (DDM).  I would recommend this class to anyone wanting to grow as a Believer.
