A Message from Pastor Lonnie Parton
If you're carrying chronic stress or anxiety... if you sense there's a deeper spiritual practice waiting for you... or if you're tired of old "mind movies" that keep replaying and keeping you stuck in your past — I'd love to help you find your way through.
1. I'm Pastor Lonnie Parton (BPRC, TRH), and I've spent over 30 years as a licensed pastor and counselor, walking alongside people through life's most complex and tender seasons. My approach is heart-centered — blending biblical wisdom with science-based practices so you can navigate change from a place of strength, not fear. I hold a Trauma-Sensitive Certification through the HeartMath Institute, along with extensive training in helping people recover from the kind of chronic stress that eventually shows up in our bodies and our emotions, not just our minds.
2. In our sessions together, you'll learn HeartMath techniques for managing your energy and regulating yourself in the moment. You'll come to understand how trauma actually works — how it lives in the mind and body, and how it quietly disconnects us from the freedom and flow of life we were designed to live in.
3. Ready to get started? We offer a free 30-minute introductory Zoom call, no cost, no obligation. Just send your request along with a little bit about yourself, and we'll go from there. (Please note: we do not accept insurance, and sessions outside the Omaha area are conducted via Zoom only.)
4. Want a head start? Consider my four-part video class, Culture by Design. Together we'll identify Adverse Childhood Experiences, heal trauma that has traveled into your relationships, learn the art of personal meditation, and write your own Intention Statement — a roadmap into your predictable future. The course comes with over 100 pages of accompanying notes. Just ask for details.
5. A little about me: My wife, Carolyn, and I have been married 45 years. We have three children and five grandchildren, and for more than 10 years we were licensed foster parents to 39 children, most of them teenagers. It's been the great privilege of my life to walk with people — young and old — through their hardest chapters and into something better.
