Our program comprises four distinct phases, each designed with a specific purpose to guide individuals toward a transformative relationship with Christ.
The Blake House Program follows a highly structured schedule centered on accountability and fostering a personal relationship with God. Each day begins with devotional time, referred to as "Quiet time," providing an opportunity to connect with God on a deeply personal level.
Class Phases
Orientation
Phase one
Orientation is our introductory phase of the program, where you will become acclimated to the structure and guidelines. During this time, the men face harsh realities of damage done to relationships, as well as encounter the love and acceptance of Jesus. Here is where you start building a personal relationship with Christ.
Preparation
Phase two
This phase is where you are reconciled with family during visitation. You will learn more about concepts, along with self-reflective assignments that bring awareness to defense mechanisms, unhealthy coping, and belief systems.
Inner Healing
Phase three
This phase of the program focuses on inviting Christ to heal the deepest areas of our inner selves. During this phase, the men apply the truth of the gospel to the unbelieving areas of their hearts. Alongside the Inner Healing curriculum, they will experience personal moments with Christ, allowing Him to heal wounded areas of their hearts.
Identity
Phase four
This is the recovery after the “surgery”. Here the men set goals, build the future and prepare for their next step, but first, they learn who they are in Christ and what his true purpose is for their life.
Program Structure
God
From the very first day, the man is faced with an understanding of who God is. They are introduced to a personal relationship with Christ through class and journaling every morning.
Self
Matthew 22:39 Jesus says “And the second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself.”
Our men enter the program having hurt the people they love and truly care about, often because they do not genuinely love themselves. Throughout the 10 months, our residents learn the true meaning of receiving love and being able to give it to others, as well as growing in their identity with Christ.
Others
Relationships play a crucial role in our program. Throughout the 10 months, participants actively engage in relational activities, groups, and classes. They foster fellowship and engage in daily prayer with one another.
