Where is LIA located?
The Love In Action campus in Bartlett, TN, a northeastern suburb of Memphis.
Can I stay in contact with my friends and family during my program?
There is an initial “No Contact” period of two to three weeks (varies with client need) to allow you to acclimate to the program and focus on what you are working to accomplish. You may then reestablish communication with your closest family members and friends. After these “re-introductions” you may have ongoing contact with them according to the guidelines established by your LIA counselor.
What if there is a family emergency?
In the event of an emergency your family will be placed in contact with you immediately.
What is a typical day like in The Source program?
A typical day begins at the gym, followed by a time for personal devotions and a short chapel service. The rest of the morning consists of two or three interactive group sessions. After breaking for lunch, one or two group sessions are conducted followed by time for work on personalized assignments. Clients share a meal together each evening and then spend time completing assignments for the following day. Recreational time is scheduled on weekends, including game and movie nights. Errand time is also scheduled for clients to purchase personal necessities. Time is spent Saturday mornings maintaining the house and grounds, and clients attend LIA’s host church on Sundays. Other activities may include events such as trips to museums, nature hikes, or team-building outdoor elements.
What are the program’s areas of focus?
The Source is designed to help clients to: address core issues underlying their struggles; release burdens such as guilt, shame, fear, and inadequacy; experience God’s grace, mercy and love by connecting with other believers in healthy, honest relationships; learn practical tools for relating to others in a healthier way; analyze patterns of behavior and learn strategies for resisting temptation; to begin building a support network to help them succeed after their program. Every aspect of The Source is based on our understanding of Scripture and our desire for clients to experience healing and growth in their personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
