Welcome to the Immanuel Approach Training Arm of Face to Face Ministries
What is The Immanuel Approach?
"The Immanuel Approach is a heart healing model that applies several simple-but-powerful biblical truths and brain-science principles to help the recipient establish an interactive, two-way, back-and-forth connection with Jesus. Once this inter-active, two-way, back-and-forth connection has been established, we can pursue any one of a variety of options with respect to adventures that God and the recipient can engage in together."
Dr. Karl Lehman, MD, Founder of The Immanuel Approach
Because learning the model alone is not enough...
we have created a development program built on these 3 essential areas:
METHODOLOGY
You will experience the foundational Immanuel Approach tools and learn how to apply them in more complex situations. Through ample opportunities to practice, you will gain confidence and proficiency to help others connect with Jesus.
PERSONAL HEART WORK
Because you cannot lead where you have not been, doing your own heart work is essential. As you pursue your own heart healing journey, you will experience greater freedom in your life and remove blocks to deeper intimacy with Jesus.
EMOTIONAL MATURITY
Through personal growth, you can attain a higher level of emotional health, maturity skills, and self-awareness. Growing in maturity skills will help you become the best version of yourself, with greater capacity for joy.

More About Us
“Face to Face Ministries is awesome! I learned how to use current brain science to help encounter the living interactive presence of Immanuel (God with us) and practiced helping others interact with Jesus. This first step in helping others toward heart healing is amazingly effective and helpful for both myself and those I would like to help.”
Steve, Idaho
I’m beyond words. Melinda and Cathy have packaged the training into a super simple framework that they can gift to us in an easy way. I’m walking away with more healing for my own heart, and I helped others get resolution and healing. This has made me realize I can do this with my children, my co-workers, anyone!
