Thank you for your interest in the BrushFires Ministry workbook. Many leaders, who have taken our workshop, have determined that their staff and families should also take the workshop to be used in the ministering to their flock and the building up of their own family's lives. This workbook allows our training to be shared with your staff, congregations, small groups, friends and family. It contains self discovery questions, links to our videos and personal insights into each person's unique God Given Design.
Many have determined to share our program based upon the unique ministry that is BrushFires. Our program's ability to reveal to others the intentional way that the Father has designed everyone gives them a more effective and impactful approach to ministering to their flock. They are often excited to share this training with their families and friends.
BrushFires' primary focus is to followers of Jesus Christ. We recognize that most believers are not involved in a meaningful ministry of their own. Many believers think that ministry is the responsibility of the church staff. We have been effectively making the case that ministry is for all followers of Jesus Christ. Just because you don't see yourself in the Worship Leader, Senior Pastor or traveling missionary roles, does not mean that the Father does not have a specific, intentional and uniquely fulfilling ministry for you to get involved in. BrushFires' focus is the 80% that attend church and don't get connected to the body in a meaningful way. BrushFires helps them to find their place, encourages them to serve and put roots into the body of Christ. We uncover leaders, servants and the missing pieces for all ministries.
We are happy to meet with any leader to discuss this further.

A Winter Storm
By Ann Collins
Grace Winter thought she was free from the shame that haunted her childhood when she publishes a book, her story, of redemption. But when her boyfriend wants to spend their Christmas with her family, she becomes aware of how far she is from freedom. As she revisits her past, Grace attempts to juggle who she is, who others want her to be, and the expectations of her faith. When her first love comes into her life again, changed in all the right ways, he helps her discover a desire for what she never thought was possible to have: true love and freedom from a life dominated by secrets and lies. On this journey she must choose what her heart desires, between keeping the peace and bringing the truth to light, and will find out whether it's possible to forgive the unforgivable.

Fortune Lost – Book 1
By Ann Collins
All Moira Jameson has left of her mother is what’s in the journals willed to her, and there are far more secrets to her mother’s past than Moira could have imagined. As she learns about the woman behind the veil of motherhood, she finds her judgments of her mother have been, at best, unfounded. Her secret has wounded generations, and in getting to the bottom of it Moira finds her faith and all she’s ever believed in to be challenged, and she has to ask herself if, in giving her the journals, her mother is asking for something in return beyond the grave.

Will Moira use the truth she found to stop the cycle of deceit? Will she have enough faith to help her overcome her own loss?

Fortune Restored – Book 3
By Ann Collins
