who we are

Our Heartbeat

Restoring relationships to reflect the Garden of Eden love.

Heartbeat of the Ministry

Our ministry was birthed from a simple yet profound desire: to restore relationships to their divine purpose. Whether through teaching, mentoring, or creating sacred spaces for reflection and healing, we aim to guide others toward the fullness of God’s love and the abundant life He intended.

This is more than a ministry—it’s a movement to step beyond the brokenness of the world and into the garden of God’s presence.

At Back to the Garden, we are on a mission to invite people back to the essence of love as God intended. Inspired by Genesis, we believe that relationships—whether with God, a spouse, or others—are meant to reflect the beauty, harmony, and intimacy of the garden of Eden.

Our Story

Demonstrated by living our core values: compassion, growth, courage to act, responsibility, belonging, curiosity. You can see them cultivated in every experience for students, families and staff.

Community is everything. It’s who we are and how things get done. Everyone here is motivated by a deep commitment to making sure each child and family feels welcome and included. When everyone feels like they belong, we are stronger and smarter together. We’re a community driven to make the world a better place—starting in our own backyard.

Our Core Values

Jesus is not only the center of our faith but also the example of love, humility, and restoration that we seek to reflect in every relationship.

We value God’s Original Design for Relationships

We believe that God created love, marriage, and family to mirror His perfect union and harmony. Our mission is to help individuals and couples rediscover this divine design and live it out daily.

We value the Transforming Power of the Father’s Love

True healing comes when hearts encounter the Father’s love. This love restores brokenness, renews trust, and brings freedom to live as beloved sons and daughters.

We value Authenticity and Grace

We journey honestly through life’s struggles, knowing that grace meets us in our weakness. Our community is built on transparency, compassion, and encouragement.

We value Restoration and Wholeness

Just as God restored Eden, we believe He desires to restore every heart and relationship. Through teaching, mentoring, and prayer, we create sacred spaces for reflection and healing.

We value Community and Covenant

We believe God ordained the family to glorify him. We are committed to cultivate an atmosphere which promotes spiritual growth within the family by reaching families with the gospel, discipling them in Christ-like character and teaching each family member how to fulfill their God-given role.
