Mission and programs · 2022

Mission

The Life Model Works vision is that everyone who encounters the church is transformed into the image of Christ. Our mission is to equip existing networks to create identity transformation into the likeness of Christ in church and culture. Life Model Works is a non-profit 501c3 religious service organization building on the fifty-year legacy of Shepherd's House, Inc. which was founded in 1970 in Van Nuys, California as a counseling center. Life Model Works guides the development and application of full-brained practices that transform. We develop resources and products and provide services to individuals, churches, and organizations in furtherance of this mission.

During 2022, Life Model Works (LMW) continued creating and refining content to spread the Life Model to a broader audience. Post-COVID focused on increasing the exposure and attendance of our Study Groups, Leaders' Collectives and Consulting. LMW provided hope to our divided world with our new book, Escaping Enemy Mode: How Our Brains Unite or Divide Us, based on the latest research on a destructive brain state that impacts every human being. We spread the Life Model to hundreds of newcomers with our practical Life Model Study Groups . LMW taught the neurotheology of the "As If", and the "Best Self" through "Fearless Identity: Parting the Sea of Imposters and Finding Our Best Selves," the online TRANSFORM conference., We improved Life Model's streaming service, JoyStream, with a new user interface and content. We provided training and resources to spread peace and joy to Christians in Asia and Europe, LMW worked to equip eager leaders in our newest year-long training cohort, Leader's Collective. Life Model Consulting continued to support churches and ministries with direct training, enabling them to change their organizational culture to a more relational way of living and working.

On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
