What others are saying about Unhindered Ranch

When I first encountered Unhindered Ranch, I'd been on my healing journey for a little over a year.  I carried a lot of heavy mental baggage from my past along with voices that told me I wasn't good enough, that I must always take the blame for things even if they weren't my fault, and that every little sin I do separates me from God and I was constantly asking for forgiveness.

During my discussions with the staff, they helped me release my need to apologize all the time, helped me understand that God is not holding my sins against me like a weapon, and, most importantly, helped me to reframe my negative thoughts onto how God really sees me: whole, worthy, beloved, blessed, holy, redeemed, lovely, healed, forgiven, etc....

Milan is an excellent listener, both to me and to God.  There are times when he would say things that felt like he was reading my mind and that was something God told him.  He cares deeply for the people he has been called to help heal.  I am grateful for how he helped me.  My spiritual life and my relationship with God will never be the same.  Thank you, Milan.

My time on the ranch I would have to say was very thorough. I enjoyed the fact that it covered a broad range of spiritual aspects and the speakers that are used were entertaining, very knowledgeable and well-spoken. 

This for certainly a decision that I was glad I made and I would certainly recommend it for anybody who wants to come to better understanding of themselves spiritually and enrich their relationship with the Lord. 

Unhindered Ranch Creator Milan Lewis made the experience better by his calm, peaceful, warm atmosphere and you can help but feel better after going through this.

I was introduced to Rapid Mind Renewal (RMR) by Milan Lewis, founder of Unhindered Ranch. Milan also introduced me to my facilitator, who conducted the RMR sessions in which we talked to and listened to God.  There is power in praying together with someone who has training and a heart to help people heal from experiences like their own.

During the RMR sessions, the Holy Spirit brought to my mind, people, places, and experiences for which He had words of healing, comfort and peace. He began to show me His truth about situations and experiences in my life. He brought clarity, comfort, and peace. I forgave myself, others, and even God. I began to feel freedom, as the weight of bondage to the lies I believed was lifted and God’s truth was revealed to me through prayer and petition. I felt as though I was basking in sunshine after the darkness dispersed.

I don’t understand and can’t explain all the ways that the Holy Spirit works, especially in the RMR sessions, but I do know this. Before meeting with the Lord in these sessions I felt helpless, hopeless, hurt, confused, and full of self-pity. I released shame, guilt, fear, rejection, bitterness, and other emotional baggage.  He has given me an overwhelming sense of hope, encouragement, determination, peace, joy, and a greater drive to love and serve Him. God has begun to “restore in me the joy of His salvation,” as David writes in Psalm 51.

As Jesus asked the blind man by the pool of Bethesda (John 5:6), “Do you want to be made well?” Do you want to prayerfully invite God into the difficult places in your life and with the help of a trained facilitator, I pray that the answer if “yes.” To God be the glory!

I have recently graduated from Unhindered Ranch and the healing I have received while working with Milan is something I will carry with me the rest of my life.  Before working with him, I didn't realize how deeply I'd buried the hurts from my past and those wounds became such a deep part of my subconscious that I told myself lies all the time.  I was a wounded sinner, but God made me that way, so it must be okay.  I had anxiety but it must be okay.  Milan helped me to understand that is not how God sees me, and it took a long time to unravel those lies.  These lies sound like, "You are ugly and stupid."  "You can never run a business; who would want to work with you?"  "You have to live with a broken heart because of the choices you made.  Now you have to own them.  For the rest of your life."

Milan helped me understand some deep truths about myself.  How I hid my authentic self behind lies to make the people around me happy.  How it felt to allow myself to be vulnerable in a safe space.  And I learned how to hear the lies for myself, and I learned some tools that help me manage the emotions and anxiety that lie to me.  I learned my anxiety is a tool I can use to identify when my subconscious is lying to me.  I learned to turn the lies inside out to see myself as God sees me. 

Milan has a gift for knowing when people are lying to themselves and does not hesitate to call that out in a caring way.  He won't quit on you, but will ask you to do some hard work.  Some of it is painful, but necessary.  I don't know exactly where my life is going as I'm at a bit of a crossroads, but I know I can see my identity and be strong enough to step up to whatever comes my way.  Thank you Milan.  It was a pleasure to work with you.  Thank you for your infinite patience as I had to relearn lessons over and over.  I know I am worthy, accepted, and loved.  KSM
